BECKY BEASLEY
RESEARCH FELLOWSHIP2017Following the completion of her work A Gentle Man, a film made with her Father, Beasley begun gathering materials and ideas as part of the process for developing a companion piece to that work. During the course of 2017 Beasley was researching and developing this new work of fiction responding to the history, geography and culture of Southend.
This research will form the core of a new piece of writing, commissioned by the Artists’ Research Centre, which will be published and accessioned into the Library at the Forum in Southend. In addition, a programme of events relating to Beasly’s research will be presented at the Forum towards the end of the year.
‘Two Plants’ in Dip was the culmination of Becky Beasley’s research project commissioned by the Artists’ Research Centre’s Creative Libraries Programme in collaboration with Focal Point Gallery, Southend-on-Sea Libraries and Museums and University of Essex. Softback, 88 pages.
