Collingwood Yards has announced its incoming cohort of studio artists, including the inaugural West Space studio artist. Andy Butler, APHIDS, Eugenia Lim, Emily Floyd, ENOKi, Kate & Rali Beynon, Luke George, Nicky Tsekouras, Nina Mulhall, Prue Stent and Honey Long, Rainbow Chan and Rowan James McNaught join the Collingwood Yards Studio Program, while Bangkok-based artist Tintin Cooper will be hosted by West Space as its first artist in residence.
Established in 2020, the Collingwood Yards studio program provides mid-career and established artists and small organisations with heavily subsidised studio space in the heart of Collingwood. Following consultation with the existing studio cohort, this iteration of the program strives to develop a close-knit studio community and deepen the relationships between studio artists and on-site presenting organisations.
