About the Artist in Residence Programme:

Paisley re – invented in digital art, soundscape and projection.

June 2024 to March 2025

Jamie Wardrop will be based within the Refractive Collective at the Witherspoon Building, Storie Street, Paisley for the next 10 months. There he will establish an open studio where he will examine different methods of visual creation.

With an eye on the roots of the town and keen awareness of the need for radical imagination, he will use the opportunity to breach the question of how we face up to the rapid changes in environment brought on by climate breakdown.

Renfrewshire Film and Digital artists will be able to work with Jamie through various workshops and exploration sessions to develop an innovative projection mapping and sound experience exhibition planned for the town centre in March 2025.

Jamie Wardrop is a digital artist, technologist and designer who has worked across the creative industries in Scotland and beyond over the past twenty years. With origins in projection mapping, 3d art, immersive experiences and film he is interested in how digital art can be used for direct expression and a deeper understanding of our place in a connected ecological whole.
