About
Rebekah Balshaw is a contemporary visual artist and the co-director of Short Supply, an artist-led initiative supporting early-career creatives in the North of England. Her multidisciplinary practice spans digital media, installation, and print, exploring themes of identity, access, and artistic labour. Rebekah’s work often challenges institutional structures and champions underrepresented voices, informed by her commitment to building inclusive creative communities.
As a facilitator and organiser, Rebekah plays a vital role in shaping artist development opportunities through Short Supply, bridging the gap between emerging artists and the wider art world. Her approach is both critical and collaborative, driven by a belief in the power of grassroots arts to reimagine the systems artists work within.
