In February I applied for studio space at Phoenix Studios in Brighton and was recently made aware that my application had been successful. I have been added to a pool of 15 other selected artists who will be allocated studio space as it becomes available. This is an exciting opportunity for me as not only will I have access to a professional working space alongside other members of the visual arts community but Phoenix also hosts its own exhibitions, open studios and has links to Fabrica, one of the leading contemporary art galleries in the city.
