87a CRITS (2025-26)

87a CRITS was a pilot programme developed from The Crit Collective, establishing a more focused and sustained structure for critique. Taking place over six months (Sept 2025-Feb 2026), it brought together a committed group of artists meeting monthly in my Cheltenham studio.
​
The programme centred on close attention to objects in space, supporting in-depth discussion around material, process, and the conditions of making. Each session was shaped in response to the group, allowing for a more deliberate and continuous form of dialogue to develop over time.
​
87a CRITS extended critique as an ongoing practice, a way of thinking through work collectively, testing its position, and interrogating how it operates in the world. It created a localised space for bold, process-driven enquiry outside of major urban centres.
