About
Grace Attlee is a cross-disciplinary facilitator, creative producer, artist and mentor/coach, with 15 years experience weaving threads between tech, fashion, illustration, activism and literature.
She started out as community manager at a start-up, where open-source technology was being used to teach electronics to young people, make custom musical instruments and interactive installations. This kickstarted Grace's interest in running participatory and educational programmes, and she went on to manage illustration and poetry projects with the likes of Apples and Snakes and The Face.
As an artist, Grace has illustrated record sleeves, designed festival stages, book covers, large scale murals, provocative projections and educational resources. She is also interested in short-form writing, using methods of chance and discovery in her daily practice.
She teaches a cross-disciplinary course at Central Saint Martins, and runs regular online writing and illustration workshops for domestic violence survivors.
Grace’s teaching is informed by popular culture, history, poetry, music and philosophy. She is skilled at curating courses with references to stimulate and provoke her students, and encourages them to subvert and critique political structures. Grace is also a trained mentor and coach, working predominantly with neurodiverse artists.
