Portrait by Rob Williamson

 

Opie Project (space) was founded by artist and culture worker, Kelsey Issel. It is named after the Greek Muse of harmony and epic poetry (and her great aunt), Calliope, who is called on to inspire the arts, sciences and storytelling. The project understands (space) as something practiced rather than possessed, supporting artists as they shape their own conditions of making.

Issel is also the co-founder of She Bends Neon
