I was invited to attend this residency alongside Alison Wilding and LR Vandy.

Body and Place is an ongoing series of drawing residencies which take the model outside the confines of the life room, in order to free drawing from life from its staid surroundings and to breathe new life into it. By placing the body within three distinct contexts: historic collections of drawings, the landscape of a private estate and contemporary architecture, harnessing the skill and passion of the best tutors and confronting them with artists of all disciplines and all stages of their career who do not habitually draw or draw from life creates a ‘still nourishing effect’ on the artists’ practice.
