Heatherleys Online: Rosalind Davis and Justin Hibbs in Conversation with Anna McNay

31 July 6.30-8pm

The Heatherley Guest Lecturer programme continues with the 6th & final in a series of online in conversation events with artists (Zoom link below). Artist-curators Rosalind Davis & Justin Hibbs, who have also contributed professional development talks to the programme, speak about their work to art writer & journalist Anna McNay.

Davis and Hibbs are both artists who, over the past 2 years, have been collaborating on a sequence of site-specific installations, which have been exhibited in several alternative iterations, responding to the context of seven different gallery spaces and their audiences. Both artists also have independent art careers and are a couple who share a studio, where the inevitable questions arise about how, why and where to set boundaries.

Davis’ and Hibbs’ collaborations bring together different aspects of their respective artists’ practices to create transformative and experiential installations. Within these artistic collaborations neither artist’s work can be negotiated without experiencing reflections of the ‘other’ within them.

In conversation with McNay, Davis and Hibbs will introduce their backgrounds with their independent art practices, as well as what it means to both consider and let the ‘other’ in and #collaborate. This conversation has wider associations within our current political &  social context, which has been central to the discourse accompanying their collaborative projects.

As well as being a Course Director for the UAL Foundation Diploma in Art and Design at Kensington and Chelsea College (2016-19), Justin Hibbs has also been an invited guest lecturer & tutor at HE institutions such as; Royal Academy Schools, Chelsea School of Art, Bath Spa University, Ruskin School of Art,  Morley College and Zeitgeist Arts Projects and provided 1-2-1 Mentoring for a number of artists.

Thanks a million for my tutorial. It was really really really constructive.

The tutorial was really good. It's given me lots to think about and follow up on, Justin was brilliant, he gave very clear, structured advice.

Just a quick message to say how pleased I am to have had the chance to attend Justin's tutorial.It was extremely useful, enjoyable and inspiring. It was a great pleasure and privilege to talk to someone so informed and insightful (and whose work I admire), yet who had no previous knowledge of my work or background, and to feel that something was genuinely communicated on both sides. I have had other tutorials where the tutor and I have just not been on the same wavelength, and these can be very frustrating and demoralising. By contrast, I now feel positive and excited and keen to get on with work. Milena Michalski

Everyone should totally go to one of Justins tutorials. It totally invigorated my practice!

 A fantastic tutorial! It was so helpful to be able to talk through the development of the work and have your input on future directions in that context. It also threw up some strengths and weaknesses I need to look at ...A useful experience."
