Artist Mentor - Beyond Boundaries ProjectTate Mar 2021 - May 2021London, England, United KingdomBeyond Boundaries is a collaboration between Tate Collective and Better Bankside.The project paired five young and emerging artists with five mentors to create large-scale public installations in the local Bankside neighbourhood. Sharon was selected to mentor young artist Hannah Hill (@hanecdote), whose site-specific work pays homage to the area and the people who live in it. 'Beyond Boundaries' was conceived to promote a sense of renewal, as many begin to reconnect with art and galleries as lockdown restrictions ease, and the world starts to reopen. The project facilitated art that is powerful, beautiful, and accessible.The site-specific artworks will be available to all through to May 2022. -
Artist In Residence - Itv Creates IdentItv Sep 2020 - Nov 2020Sharon was the first artist to showcase her work on ITV Create in 2021, as part of an ongoing project that reflects ITV’s commitment to creativity. ITV have shared their platform with a wide range of British artists, by inviting them to share their interpretation of the channel’s logo.With a new focus on collaboration this year’s ITV Create initiative, Sharon has collaborated with award-winning landscape gardener, Mark Lane, who was awarded ‘Landscape Designer of the Year 2020’. The aim of this collaboration is to unite two completely different worlds, and come together to create their own interpretation of the ITV logo. The final piece involved a large-scale reworking of Sharon’s hand-assembled paper collages, which celebrate black women. The floral portrait was then enlarged onto a sustainable and recycled material, before being installed at Fullers Mill Garden, near Bury St Edmunds in Suffolk.Both creatives are from marginalised communities, thus their re-invention of the ITV logo transcends beyond its visual qualities. The project additionally highlights the power in blackness, the ability in disability, and the diversity of both. -
