Cecelia Graham is a practitioner based between Belfast, Derry and Mid-Ulster in the north of Ireland who works with writing, participatory events and curation within her practice.
Cecelia explores collective knowledge gathering, alternative economies and labour practices in order to challenge notions of hyper-productivity, disciplinary borders and power hoarding often relied on within institutions. Her work considers modes of working that emerge from collaborative and slow methods within ecology, agriculture, craft and acts of love, friendship and vulnerability. Challenging the language of professionalism, Cecelia seeks alternative modes of advocating for and supporting a community of artists that resist strict, slick outputs.
Cecelia has worked in a number of artist-led spaces, including Catalyst Arts as Co-Director (2020-2023) and PS2 as Curator in Residence alongside Grace Jackson (2021-2023).
