Our Fellows will represent the UK at the British Pavilion at the 19th International Architecture Exhibition whilst developing their own creative and research projects during their one-month experience in Venice.

Venice 2025 Fellows

Overview

As exhibition ambassadors of ‘GBR – Geology Of Britannic Repair’, the Fellows will engage visiting members of the public and create moments of intercultural dialogue and connection. They also have the opportunity to develop their own research and creative projects, hence using the Biennale as a platform for artistic, scholarly and professional development. Through these contributions, often created in collaboration with one another, the Fellows elevate the British Pavilion to an important reference point for universities, artists and creative organisations around the world.

In partnership with twenty-four UK and Kenya higher education institutions and pioneering creative enterprises, we are supporting 46 Fellows in 2025. As part of the upcoming 2025 UK-Kenya Season of Culture, we are delighted to welcome four Fellows from Kenya to join this year’s Programme.  

Reflecting the international scope of La Biennale, there are over twenty nationalities represented in our 2025 cohort of Fellows. In addition to offering conversations and tours in English, our Fellows will be welcoming visitors in a multitude of languages, including French, Hausa, Igbo, Malayalam, Mandarin, Polish, Portuguese, Swahili, Vietnamese, Welsh, Yoruba and more. All Fellows are connected to a creative organisation or Higher Education institution in UK or Kenya.
