Platform bursaries are aimed at emerging visual artists or established artists interested in exploring new ways of working in a site-responsive/temporary/outdoor context. b-side is working in partnership with Counterpoints Arts, Dorset Visual Arts and Somerset Artworks to fund and provide support and opportunities for three artists in 2020.
Each artist received £500 to experiment and create work, had access to mentoring from b-side and the partner organisation and an opportunity to exhibit new work at b-side Festival 2021.
2021 Platform Bursary Recipients were:
Daniela Nofal, Ilona Skladzien and Lotte Scott.
