From March to October 2020 GRAIN commissioned and supported artists, writers and photographers to make new work in response to the Covid- 19 pandemic, lockdown and new laws around social distancing. The commissioning and bursary programme was a national response supported by Arts Council England and National Lottery Players.

12 photographers, writers and artists made new work responding to the unprecedented, uncertain and disturbing time of the pandemic, the affects of lockdown in the public realm and the personal and private space.

We are excited to be sharing work by; Andrea G Artz, Lydia Goldblatt, Chris Hoare, Daniel Dale, Freddy Griffiths, Jemima Yong, Ngadi Smart, Shaista Chishty, Anneka French, Anna Souter, Jamila Prowse and Lewis Bush.
