Indianna Solnick (b.1994) graduated from an MFA in Painting from the Slade in 2023 and a BA in Painting from Wimbledon in 2017. She was a recipient of the Haworth Scholarship for Painting 2021-2023 and the Retreat Prize 2017, and was shortlisted for the Adrian Carruthers Award 2023. 

Workshop

Indianna’s practice is concerned with a storytelling of land and lived spaces, tracking patterns in the infrastructure of our environments. Recent works have included large fly-postered billboard installations in public space. An interest in points of active participation with our environment as citizens of a space, and the rebellion contained in these moments, has lead to an investigation of the language of street signage. The works are built using a photocopier and echo the ephemera of print-media.Indianna can be contacted through her instagram @indsolnick or website: indi.solnickfarrell.co.uk

Envisioning changes in our environments and fostering a sense of shared ownership, collective responsibility for, but most importantly power to change our surroundings and public spaces. Utilising flypostering techniques and a photocopier, participants will have the opportunity to create contributions to the installation (or keep their work if they wish!)
