MLitt Art Writing School of Fine Art
Jodie Whitchurch
Jodie Whitchurch is an Art Writer, Prop Maker and Scenic Artist based in Glasgow and Nottingham. She received her BA in Fine Art Sculpture from Brighton University in 2020. Her debut poetry collection ‘Haven’t the Foggiest’ was published in 2022 by Big White Shed and works have been selected since by Big Red Cat Zine, From Glasgow to Saturn, The Nottingham Horror Collective and Eavesdrop Magazine. She writes with beloved (though tiresome) ghosts, mysticism and a persistent fixation with mosses; traversing terrains of poetic hybrid form, knit and theatrical soft sculpture. Her self produced pamphlet, MOSS GIRL is currently stocked at Good Press, Glasgow.
