ABOUT
Rosie Ridgway is a British multidisciplinary artist and musician working in various media, including sound, performance, sculpture and costume and learning and social arts practice. Rosie’s practice is often collaborative or participatory and often deals with humour. Her approach is centred around experimentation, celebrating difference and increasing accessibility.

Shalva Nikvashvili is a Georgian artist who lives and works in Germany. Nikvashvili’s practice looks at identity issues through transgressive takes on idiosyncrasy, visual explorations and modifications applied to a portrait.

As We Grow is our educational research programme. Focusing on intergenerational dialogue and the related exchange of experiences is at the core of AWG. Each iteration is unique. Each is designed in a dialogue with the leading artist. AWG encourages learning through making attitudes and culminates in a group exhibition. In 2023, we strengthened our AWG and consequently focused on supporting early-career artists.

SVĚTOVA 1, Prague, is a non-profit artist-run space focusing on emerging, queer and social matters. We are the most progressive art-focused queer space in the Czech Republic. Our exhibitions and public programmes reflect our mission of being a radically inclusive platform that, while maintaining sustainable processes, acts as a refuge for those in need. In addition, we aim to become a holistic entity – an educational and research institute – run by artists for artists. In 2023, our programme has been kindly supported by the Ministry of Culture Czech Republic Arts Grant and the Culture Fund of Czech Republic Arts Grant.
