About Syncing Space

Syncing Space is an accessible online space for art making, curating and collaboration.

Syncing Space brings international artists together for a professional residency to:

  • take time to try things out in an online studio, sharing their thinking, experimenting and making new work.
  • take part in leadership and coaching workshops individually and with others to share and develop ideas and confidence to do new things.
  • share work at the end of the residency in a final online exhibition
  • learn and lead on things together

Good to be back

It was great to be back working with Sync, co leading with Sarah again and meeting the new artists we’ll be working with every week. I enjoyed talking to them about their artwork and what inspires them to make their work.

As a leader, I want to share what inspires me and what I’ve been doing.

I enjoyed setting up my new exhibition on Tuesday at the Bomb Factory in central London, I feel I made some good decisions on how to display the work. I was worried when I was there as I haven’t done this since the Shift exhibition in Nottingham in 2024 but it came quite naturally. I’m now looking forward to the private view next Thursday to celebrate with ActionSpace,  family and friends.

It was so great to meet our new residents Maddi, Abraham, William and Grace today and find out more about their practice and what matters to them in making their artwork. We can’t wait to see what they reflect upon and create inbetween sessions. So good to have started!

Thompson Hall looks back

My latest painting is inspired from a drawing that I recently made called ‘Relaxed Afternoon in Seoul’, and also from mentoring Pixel, Victoria, Eliph and Lucy on this Sync shorts programme. I’ve found it interesting listening to their ideas every week. I’m really proud of what the artists have achieved. I think it’s amazing the progress they’ve made in such a short time. It was a real pleasure to mentor the four artists alongside Sarah over the course of six weeks.
