Artist / Multimedia
Imogen Stidworthy, born 1963 in London, works primarily with language and the voice, as physical and spatial material in her installations, sound works and films. Her work reflects on how we are positioned and how we locate ourselves physically and culturally, through the voice.

She was shortlisted for awards including the Jarman Award 2011, Becks Futures 2004 and The Northern Art Prize 2008; in 2008 she won the Liverpool Art Prize and in 1996, the Dutch Prix de Rome for Film and Video.
