4 week residency at 501 Artspace, China. From start to finish.
By: Nicola Smith
I was selected to participate in a four-week artist residency at the 501 Artspace in Chongqing, China. I have written this blog as a way of documenting the experience and what happens after the residency when you get back? This project is supported by Arts Council England, 501 Artspace & The Chinese Arts Centre.

I am a visual artist who makes work in response to the context of my surroundings and use different mediums, such as live art intervention, performance lectures and video. I punctuate situations in public and private spaces by playing out a series of actions in order to disrupt the expectations of the audience. I have exhibited work at the Greenroom, Manchester and at the Bluecoat in Liverpool, and collaborated with individuals and artist groups in the north west and north east of England.
