STUDIO
Rebecca’s studio and practice is based on the historic Welbeck Estate, in the heart of Sherwood Forest. The 15,000-acre estate sits in an area called the Dukeries. It includes a historic park laid out in 1748, ancient woodlands, forestry, lakes, and farmland, as well as some of the UK’s most significant rural heritage buildings.
Urban Projections is based in the Harley Foundation Studios, a vibrant hub of artists and makers on the Welbeck Estate.
The studio, designed by renowned British architect John Outram, sits on the site of Victorian cucumber and pineapple pits and is part of the East Workshops, also known as Pineapple Place. While the studio is not open to the general public, Rebecca welcomes visits and collaborative opportunities by appointment.
In addition to her immersive art practice, she offers one-to-one mentoring and tailored training in new media techniques, supporting artists and makers to develop their creative ideas, explore innovative technologies, and expand their practice in a supportive environment.
The studio's unique location offers beautiful rural seclusion, whilst being adjacent to the post-industrial mining villages of North Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire and South Yorkshire, where Rebecca grew up. This juxtaposition and sense of 'inbetween-ness' directly influences her visual language and identity.
Equipped for technical and creative experimentation, Rebecca cultivates an inclusive space for collaboration and the sharing of ideas.
