Book now

Joshua Henderson and Veronica Watson, who have developed their practice as members of Blue Room, Bluecoat’s inclusive arts programme, embark on their first studio residency, Studio Me, sharing work from their individual practices. Henderson’s architecture-inspired drawings have evolved through a newly developed etching practice, using Bluecoat’s print studio. Watson’s portraiture practice has developed through observing the faces of the people who populate Bluecoat.
