Stephanie Cubbin
Place, Space and Movement
Stephanie Cubbin is an artist based in Norwich, and a member of Carrow House Creatives, an artist collective working from Carrow House Studios. She studied Fine Art and Theatre Design and started her career as a painter in the theatre. Alongside a 25-year career in art teaching, Stephanie has a sustained independent artistic practice.
Stephanie is drawn to the microscopic, looking particularly colours and textures, taking the mundane and offering different viewpoints of the world. Her artwork offers different ways of looking at familiar things, close up or filtered through memory and experience.
Her practice begins with an act of observation and recording the surfaces of worn concrete, weathered stone, patches of soil, or the tide-washed textures of rock. These surfaces hold traces of time and human presence; they are maps of contact and erosion. Back in the studio, she translates these observations into print. These abstract mappings become templates for layered print and paint processes.

Specialising in handmade lifelike animal marionettes made from sustainable materials and acts of unscripted walkabout encounter, they aim to recapture the moment of magic when experiencing an encounter with a wild animal through cruelty-free means.

Shathy Bano
Textile Artist & Facilitator
Shathy Bano is a Bengali British visual artist with an extensive background in social work and therapeutic community art. Shathy’s family migrated during the civil war between Bangladesh and Pakistan in 1971, when she was a child.
She explores the fluid nature of cultural identity, transformation, and loss through the generations, and the evolving, yet transitory, notion of home and sense of identity and place. Shathy uses participatory, interactive, and collaborative processes for her creative practice.
Shathy uses a range of materials and mediums in her practice. Shathy is passionate about enabling access to art practice within art establishments, recognising the empowering and healing elements it provides.
It is important for individuals to be seen and heard and to receive acknowledgement, insight and understanding without an expectation to fit into ascribed criteria. A key aspect of belonging lies in the acknowledgment and valuing of cultural influence and diversity.
Bee Springwood
Mixed Media Artist
I am a mixed media artist, also a sounder/songwriter/dancer, combining these in performances and installations. (see the weblinks, )
Carrow House has become a task-freeing play space. Here I experiment with textiles, (1 in progress in the pics) quick drawings out the window, assembling things which might have a temporary life at a sculpture trail.
Im also reflecting on the many photographs I continue take of the natural world, often close up.Im very lucky to be retired from needing to earn a living. My focus now is on reclaiming Spirit in our living, making, connecting with each other and the more-than-human worlds, I want to return appreciation, gratitude, and assist the restoration of our planet.
To this end I’m also a mega recycler, repair café helper, permaculture and organic gardening/farming nut. Gardening, mending/sewing, and re-learning developing craft skills my grandparents knew is part of this art-process for me.

A Director of Carrow House Creatives CIC and studio member, she uses her studio time to explore textiles through playful projects with no pressure to produce.

Steve Thompson
Mixed Media Artist
My practice over the years has been split between the instinctive use of traditional materials to create expressive and evocative artworks and the digital manipulation of photographic sources to develop layered and complex imagery, variously mysterious, ambiguous or surreal.
A relative newcomer to Norwich, and an artist in the Carrow House community, I look forward to continuing an immersive return to printmaking, drawing and painting, particularly in the genres of landscape and figure/portraiture. I have a particular interest in combining paint and drawing with photographic prints on board or canvas.

Join the Chocolution
‘Join the Chocolution is a creative project that elevates the voice of cocoa farming communities and explores new ways for people to engage with the realities behind chocolate.
Cocoa is grown across Latin America, the Caribbean, Africa and Asia by millions of smallholder farming families. Yet the people who grow cocoa have historically been placed at the bottom of the chocolate system, with decisions about farming, pricing and sustainability often made far from the farms themselves.
This imbalance is not only economic. It is also about power, autonomy and dignity. Colonial legacies, racism and damaging narratives continue to shape how cocoa farmers are perceived and treated, with farmers often blamed or labelled lazy when systems imposed on them fail. In reality, cocoa farmers hold deep agricultural knowledge and expertise.
Join the Chocolution creates creative spaces for dialogue, learning and participation that connect cocoa communities, consumers, creatives and businesses, encouraging understanding and collective action.’
