In its second year, the Morphe Arts Residency is a practice-based programme in dialogue between Christian theology and contemporary art practice. Artists have access to studio spaces at St Barnabas Church, Dalston, for six months, from May to October. During this time the artists will develop a new body of work for exhibition in October 2025. The programme includes a weekly schedule of seminars, workshops and crits from visiting tutors. The residency is looking to create a space where questions of faith and belief can be explored alongside artistic practice yet there is no expectation for artists to be making work specifically related to ideas of faith.
The residency programme is open to artists of all faiths and none, but with an expectation that those participating in the residency will be willing and interested in discussions of faith, with an awareness that Morphē Arts is particularly focused on engagement with the Christian tradition.
With thanks to St Barnabas Church Dalston, Westhill Endowment Fund, and The Fyrish Trust for making this residency possible.
