On April 22nd and 23rd, Glasgow-based artist Graham Fagen travelled to Port of Spain to engage with artists working there. His visit included meeting artists through Alice Yard at Granderson Lab as well as 1000 Mokos and JoJo Helfer – TAARE resident artist visiting from Dundee, Scotland in Trinidad for eight weeks. Graham’s visit culminated in a public lecture at Alice Yard. Alice Yard is a space for creative experiment, collaboration, and improvisation; administered and curated by architect Sean Leonard, artist Christopher Cozier, and writer and editor Nicholas Laughlin, with the help of a growing network of creative collaborators. Granderson Lab is Alice Yard’s satellite space which offers studios and space for screenings, shows, and performances. The Trinidad programme was collaboratively organised by the British Council in partnership with Alice Yard.
