Elizabeth Challinor: —

As part of IB21, Elizabeth Challinor will be conducting casual interviews with the different artists and organisations involved in the current iteration of the festival. As the festival was pushed back from 2020, a lot of the artists have been involved and working on their projects for quite a while now, and a lot of work would’ve been adapted to be available digitally as opposed to tangibly.

This project will share conversations with participating artists about the more ’behind the scenes’ aspects of IB21: how they’ve been creating their work, how it may have changed over the duration of the project, what changes they’ve had to make for their work to be available digitally, as well as focusing on their techniques and processes, and their experience with the biennial in general. This series aims to give a more transparent look into how the artists have been involved with the festival, and allowing an insight into how they work as artists and creative practitioners.
