Celia Burbush is interested in how participating in the creative process gives us insights that could not be obtained via other means. She spends a portion of her year on socially-engaged projects and the rest of her time developing her painting practice.
Celia became C-Art Cumbrian Artist of the Year in 2017, won her episode in BBC’s inaugural series of ‘Home is Where the Art Is’; and received critical appraisal in Joshua Sofaer’s book Performance, Objects, Participation’ (eds. Mock, R & Paterson, M, 2020, Intellect Live). Most recently, she co-created The Baltic Centre of Contemporary Art’s first remote outdoor art trail and hosted their first online symposium in 2021. She was Director of New Arts North 2009-2019, receiving many funding awards for her art projects, and working with the major cultural venues.
