I had an extraordinary experience at Iris Art Centre in the countryside of Greece that provided focus, direction, care, and inclusion to engage in exploration.
An opportunity to dive deeper into the development of my art practice.
As a disabled artist finding a residency that was accessible for my mobility needs and comforts proved a great challenge as I searched International residencies for two years. And then, Iris Art Centre appeared.
After numourous communications with Annette to discuss needs and my desire to explore new medium and concepts all was then in place to coordinate trip details.
Was beyond all that I could of imagined!
