About
Chelsea Brown
Chelsea Brown works to unearth and emancipate feminine power from religious and historical narratives. Her most recent work investigates the real women responsible for much of Oxford’s history and mythology, including Saint Frideswide, the patron saint of Oxford.
From founding the site of Christ Church Cathedral where her bones rest to this day, to blinding kings and replenishing their sight with healing springs, her story is one where reality and myth blend to form the true history of Oxford.
Mike Halliwell
Mike Halliwell is an Illustrator, Architectural Designer, Musician and Lecturer, based in Oxford.
Primarily working in collage and mixed-media, his work explores themes of psychology, space, mass, absence, dimension and materiality, and the relationship between imagery and text.
Having studied Music, Architecture and Illustration at Reading College and School of Arts and Design, Oxford Brookes University and UCA (Fanham) respectively, Mike now splits his time between his illustration practice and teaching Research-Led Design at Oxford Brookes.
