In the communal Riverside studio at Re:Centre, Hammersmith, nine London based artists have been given the chance to step out of their traditional modes of working, and enter a reflective and inspiring space to reconnect to themselves, to others and to their creative practice.
Each three-month residency culminates in a two-week long exhibition at Re:Centre’s 4000 square feet event space.
The first exhibition titled ‘Choose Your Hero’ is based on the theme of The Hero’s Journey (Joseph Campbell) and is curated by public art curator Ben Moore.

Selected works by each of the nine artists will go on display across billboard space at Regent’s Park from 24 September for four weeks supported by
Art Below.
25% of the proceeds go towards developing Special Yoga at Re:Centre which aims to support and facilitate the practice of yoga for children and adults with special needs.
