Feeney Fellows 2013

The first Feeney Fellowships were awarded to Elizabeth Rowe and Pritam Singh.


Elizabeth Rowe

Elizabeth works with printed matter such as newspapers, magazines, postcards and other found materials to create collages, drawings and prints.

She says:

"The Feeney Fellowship will give me the opportunity to explore a new printmaking process called photo etching. This will enable me to produce a series of large billboard-style prints that will be exhibited at a Metro station in Lyon, one of Birmingham's twinned cities. It is envisaged that the connections made through the project will open up networks between creative communities in Birmingham and Lyon."

Pritam Singh

Pritam is a composer, vocalist and tabla player in the classical Indian music tradition, who also performs with musicians from other genres: Rock, Punk, Western Jazz, African and Middle Eastern.

He says:

"The Feeney Fellowship will allow me to develop my career by working alongside Jazz musicians; learning, creating and composing new hybrid music through blending Indian Ragas/rhythms with the vibrant sound and razzmatazz of a Jazz orchestra. My educational workshops will inspire musicians and students in schools to adapt a cross-cultural and diverse approach to music, and I hope that with the Feeney Fellowship I can further develop my career as a composer."
