About The Residents

LADA has curated four short artists' residencies in the Wellcome Collection’s wonderful Reading Room.

Each artist has worked with a specific theme within the Reading Room, exploring the materials and resources held in the collection in relation to their own practice and research, and leading to public ‘performances’ of their findings and conversations with invited experts. 

The Residents were Selina Thompson on Food, Joshua Sofaer on Face, Tim Bromage on Alchemy, and Stacy Makishi on Faith.
