In this episode David Trigg explores the work of Morphē Arts, a national network that encourages critical engagement between Christian faith and contemporary art.
Since 2011, Morphē has provided support and resources for arts graduates and early to mid-career artists around the UK, helping them to think through issues of art and faith and to work with integrity in their creative practices.
The network’s co-founders David McCulloch (aka Cully) and Ally Gordon are joined by Sarah White to discuss how Morphē began, the challenges faced by artists of faith, and the various activities and programmes that the charity runs.
David and Cully also meet in Dundee to discuss Morphē's public art project Sharing Not Hoarding and the alternative art space Nomas Projects, an experimental, zero-budget gallery based in the windows of a church office building.
