About

In this Bricks podcast episode, artist Ellie Shipman and curator Elita Robertson discuss exhibiting social practice, working creatively with communities and bringing the personal into the participatory around Ellie’s solo show RE:COLLECTION - Regathering Social Practice at St. Anne’s House, 2 - 11 Nov 2023.

Artist Ellie Shipman and curator Elita Robertson discuss embedding personal and artistic values across your practice, what kinds of commissions to look out for and avoid, fair pay for artists and the importance of authenticity in participation. Ellie reflects on key turning points in her career to date, how pattern became ingrained in her participatory projects, and the process of regathering artworks created across the last 12 years from archives, universities and arts organisations for her solo show RE:COLLECTION - Regathering Social Practice.
