Emily Stollery; Sculpture Production Award 2019
Central to our ethos is that artists should be able to further their practice without the constraint caused by a lack of access to equipment, facilities and expertise. Pangaea is committed to providing essential opportunities, practical support and facilities for practitioners to enable the development of their practice.
Pangaea supports artists and arts organisations alike, meeting the diverse needs of both domestic and overseas practitioners and other sculpture enthusiasts, including curators, collectors and commissioners.
Collaboration is integral to our culture and Pangaea has a reputation for being both rigorous and innovative, combining grassroots activism with commercial activity to support its not-for-profit ambitions. Our network of individuals and organisations share our commitment to making cultural production more sustainable, accessible, diverse and engaged.

“I am delighted to support Pangaea in their mission, which aligns with Yorkshire Sculpture Park’s longstanding commitment to working with artists at all stages of their practice. Especially in the formative years after graduation, artists need help navigating the ‘business’ whilst preserving the essential head-space and working environment that this kind of work requires. There is a great deal involved in effectively documenting, archiving, presenting and circulating artworks and it can be challenging to get the right technical and practical advice on how to make, store and install sculpture. By prioritising these things, we hope to offer a nurturing platform that gives artists the confidence to grow not only into the next stages of their development but into a long and exciting vision ahead. This is why the work of Pangaea is absolutely essential and this resource will make a significant contribution to the future history of sculpture in the UK and beyond.”
