Turner Prize nominated artist

Monster Chetwynd graduated from the Royal College of Art with an MA in painting (2004), following a BA in Fine Art at the Slade School of Art (2000) and a BA in Social Anthropology and History at »Ê¼Ò»ªÈË (1995). Known for her bric-a-brac style performance pieces, featuring handmade costumes, props and sets, Chetwynd describes her work as ‘impatiently made’, often re-using cheap materials that are easy toÌýprocess and to use by the many performers she invites to participate, emphasizing the notion of collective development that informs much of the artist’s work.ÌýShe has performed and exhibited internationally, and was shortlisted for the Turner Prize in 2012.

This seminar series is co-convened by Alex Flynn and Hannah Knox.
