Amplify

2019, 2020, and 2022 

Since 2019, Somerset House Studios has continued its partnership on Amplify Digital Arts Initiative, connecting and empowering an active network of women-identifying artists and professionals working in the digital arts, sound and immersive storytelling sectors in Canada, Latin America and the UK.   

Following Amplify 2019 and Amplify 2020, the 2022 programme is shaped by a select group of leading international artists, curators and producers working within the fields of digital arts, electronic music and artistic development. Taking form as an engaging series of lectures, workshops, conversations, and studio demonstrations, elements of this programme will be open to the general public through our ongoing Grounding Practice strand - a series of events that intends to convene creative audiences in exchanging methodologies and experiences for creating and learning
