Overview
As exhibition ambassadors of ‘GBR – Geology Of Britannic Repair’, the Fellows engaged visitors and created moments of intercultural dialogue and connection. They also had the opportunity to develop their own research and creative projects during their month in Venice, hence using La Biennale as a platform for artistic, scholarly and professional development.
In partnership with twenty-four UK and Kenyan higher education institutions and pioneering creative enterprises, we supported forty-five Fellows in 2025. As part of the UK/Kenya Season 2025, we were delighted to welcome four Fellows from Kenya to join this year’s Programme.
Reflecting on the international scope of La Biennale, there were over twenty nationalities represented in our 2025 cohort of Fellows. In addition to offering conversations and tours in English, our Fellows welcomed visitors in a multitude of languages, including French, Hausa, Igbo, Malayalam, Mandarin, Polish, Portuguese, Swahili, Vietnamese, Welsh, Yoruba and more. All Fellows were connected to a creative organisation or Higher Education institution in UK or Kenya.
