ONLINE EXHIBITION

The 2020 Leeds Summer Group Show is an annual summer group show that I started in 2015. With the support of Leeds Inspired, CuratorSpace and The State Of The Arts, I was able to create this online exhibition in response to the global pandemic as a way to continue to support artists, showcase talent, sell work and award a cash prize.

I was joined on the selection panel by Holly Grange, Derek Horton, Louise Atkinson, and Si Smith who reviewed the 395 submissions and chose 38 artists to include in the exhibition. From these, six were shortlisted, they took a share of the prize money and were interviewed by TSOTA. The interviews related to the exhibition can be seen here:

• An interview with court, the curator of the exhibition
