9 WORDS PODCASTS
9 Words Podcasts are discussion-based podcasts with Offsite9 commissioned artists in Wolverhampton using a particular theme as a starting point.
Earlier this year the British Art Show 9, which takes place every 5 years showcasing the best in contemporary art, toured to Wolverhampton. Creative Black Country ran a complementary programme commissioning over 20 locally-based artists in a range of art forms on the themes of hope, resilience, reimagining and more.
Wolverhampton-born Creative Producer Bobby Tiwana spoke to 9 artists/projects to find out more about them and their practice, using a keyword for discussion. Composer, sound designer and music producer Duncan Grimley created original music responses to the keywords.
As the podcasts go live we’ll be sharing them on this page.
