International Artists Fellowships

Graduating from Stirling University with a Bsc in Biology, Anne Brodie's first career choice was salmon farming on the west coast Scotland. After a move south, she studied Fine Art Ceramics at the City Lit Institute, London, and then at the Royal College of Art (MA Ceramics and Glass), graduating in 2003. Working experimentally with hot glass, film and photography, she jointly won the international Bombay Sapphire prize for design and innovation involving the use of glass with a short film 'Roker Breakfast' in 2005.

Anne was awarded the jointly supported British Antarctic Survey / Arts Council fellowship to Antarctica in 06/07 where she lived and worked for over two months. In Nov 2007 she was a speaker at 'Polar' a multi discipline symposium at the British Library. Most recently she was shortlisted for the Man Group photography prize with 5 Antarctic images.

Anne works on the boundaries of science and art and has been awarded two Arts Council grants, one for a current collaborative project inspired by her Antarctic experience, involving the use of bioluminescent bacteria as a light source in a tubular glass 'chandelier installation'.
