Changing Practice, Cat Auburn, 2019

research residencies 

Each year we invite artists to undertake paid research residencies to develop their practice and our programme.  There is no expectation that finished work will be produced, but during their time with us we will support the artist to consider local and international stakeholders with a view to producing their work as part of our programme at a later date.

Following an open call as part of our current programme we are pleased to have been joined by artists in residence Nicola Singh and Cat Auburn.

Nicola Singh is a Newcastle based artist and researcher, specialising in contemporary performance work often supported by film, photography, installation and print pieces. Taking inspiration from written text and spoken word, through her performances she relates language to the unique experiences present within the physical body. Throughout her time with D6 Nicola explored her own lived experiences of race and migration and how this intersects with contemporary arts practice. 

​Cat Auburn’s practice encompasses sculpture, film, photography and performance, often exploring collective memory through research into archives and historical collections. She investigates how material objects in collections reference a colonial past, and how this reinforces our ideas of cultural heritage and belonging. Whilst with us Cat  developed her research surrounding repatriation, co-authorship and systemic decolonisation.
