Overview

Join us on the final day of the exhibition 'Life Within Landscapes: Caribbean-Cambridge Art, Now' to hear three remarkable artists Sandra Scott, Selena Scott & Nadia Koo discuss their work and practice with Wolfson Fellow, Anna Dempster, including how they became artists and what it means for them.

This is the last opportunity to view the exhibition and learn more about the work and the artists motivations. 

The conversation will cover a range of themes, including: the artists practice, race and gender in art, as well as mental health and wellbeing, and the environment – all of which play an important part in the work of these remarkable black British and female artists, currently based in Cambridgeshire.
