artist in residence

OUR ARTIST IN RESIDENCE:

Jeremy Varcl, known professionally as "Jay Remy", is a multi-disciplinary designer currently studying Computer Art at Abertay University. A freelancer who thrives on variety, working across poster design, fashion, branding, 3D art and concept design to turn radical ideas into visuals that stand out.

"Grind culture tells us that art needs to be productive or profitable, automated, dehumanised, and taken over by AI. Social media floods the brain so fast that we forget to feel. We should express the rage and grief of a life stolen by over-consumerism and create something real."

Jeremy will be working with us during the duration of "Scroll Down" and will present his final artwork at our end of project art exhibition in April!

You can follow Jeremy's work on his website or on instagram!
