Tori Atherton in Residence


  • Stroud Valleys Artspace 4 John Street Stroud United Kingdom (map)

Tuesday 2nd - Tuesday 9th April

Tori is a visual media, installation and sculpture artist based in London. Since graduating from Central Saint Martins in 2019, her practise explores the obscurity of being alive by building on her transcendental thoughts or experiences. The contextual focus in Tori’s practise is on ancestral trauma held in our spirit, how that runs through our existential experience, how it mirrors our natural environment with the cycle of birth, death and decay and subsequently how we visit these realms in-between these cycles. Drawing on symbolism and folklore, Tori’s aim is to build on her dreams and experiences by creating sculpture and costume for her films, predominantly using organic materials and plants. Following on from her project “Pressing on my Mothers Bed, 2023”, Tori will be using the space and surrounding areas within Stroud to produce new work in sculpture, film and writing as well as cultivating discussion on her and others conceptual practise and feedback on previous work.

Opening times:

Friday and Saturday 10am-3pm
