"The Fellowship has ensured that this process of discovery has been organically fuelled, nourished and has empowered the artist to be at the centre of their developmental journey, making their own choices and directing a way forward not based on financial constrictions but on investigating ideas."

' t[n++] = '"Psychologically the result of the Fellowship cannot be measured. It is quite difficult to express the change and what the change has meant, the effects it has created. I decided to direct a large part of the award to securing studio space in central London, although outlined in my application for the award, I made no mention of this, preferring to reflect on the need for materials and equipment. Perhaps here lies precisely the true value and benefit of such an award. It enables choice. The possibility to make changes, experiments, to move, not only in terms of location but in direction and investigation. It offers a creative liberty, which, at best, results in the realisation of thoughtful, precise and successful works."
