We will be meeting online via Zoom again this month for a talk & discussion led by Nikki Davidson-Bowman. She will be joined by three more Blue Monkey Network artists to talk about the use of external set creative challenges to make work, and ultimately to discuss whether the effort of doing these challenges is a distraction or potentially develops your practice: Playing by the Rules.
Nikki Davidson-Bowman is a multi-media artist and curator, whose practice is inspired by female stories of resilience, brought to life through the use of found ephemera, words and natural things. She has taken part in two 30 Works in 30 days challenges as well as one A poem a day, for 10 days. She will be joined in sharing work from these challenges, and talking about the various processes used, by Judith Alder, June Nelson and Stephanie Grainger.
Nikki has been a BMN member since 2014 and works out of her home studio in Bexhill-on-Sea.
