Krissy Stewart was born and raised in California and attended California State University Long Beach, where she developed an interest in art and design. Krissy earned a Design and Applied Arts degree from Edinburgh College of Art, where she honed her printmaking skills, primarily focusing on interior architecture. Recently completing her MSc in Art Psychotherapy, Krissy has further solidified her commitment to utilising art and psychodynamic theory as a powerful tool for healing and self-discovery. Krissy has successfully sold and exhibited her work on an international level.
The Bridge Awards Residency was launched in 2023. Designed specifically for artists based in Scotland recovering from breast cancer, the 2023 residency was awarded to the Fife-based artist Susanne Nørregård Nielsen. Building upon the success of this first individual residency, we are launched a one-week group residency in May 2024. The participating artists included: film producer and writer Ros Borland, creative arts practitioner, teacher, and facilitator Abbey Craig, writer Moira McPartlin, and visual artist Krissy Stewart. The 2024 group residency also includes a music and wellbeing session generously offered by Scottish Ensemble.
Now, in its third year, Cove Park is pleased to offer a further four fully funded residencies in 2025. We are grateful to The Bridge Awards for making this residency possible, and to Maggie’s for their support.
