DESCRIPTION:2023 is a year full of possibilities in a landscape that is eve

 talented and experienced creatives\, to share their own inspirational stor
 y.\n\nAbout this event\n\nChaired by LUMA Creations’ Creative Director &
 amp\; CEO\, Francisco Carrasco\, this special event aims to inspire and gi
 ve food for thought as well as give you the chance to hear from three exce
 ptional individuals about how they have tackled the many obstacles of work
 ing in the creative sector. An informal and lively panel discussion where 
 you can join in\, ask questions and meet other people starting or growing 
 their own businesses. Including the importance of being able to do things 
 differently and keeping up with the trends and the changes in the industry
  and the world in these extraordinary times.\n\nFaith Bebbington\n\nFor ov

  (Football Association) for Wembley Stadium and Westminster City Council\,
  her large-scale sculptures made from recycled materials have been exhibit
 ed in a myriad of locations across the UK.\n\nFaith’s artistic practice 
 initially stemmed from having cerebral palsy\, a disability that made her 
 curious about how people and animals move. Faith explores this through fig
 urative sculptures playing with balance\, the process of falling\, and cap
 turing sequences of movement whether human or animal.\n\nIn 2014 her artis
 tic perspective shifted radically after surviving ‘terminal’ cancer! F
 aith stopped working with fibreglass resin as her main medium and focused 
 on more sustainable\, environmentally friendly ways of working\, particula
 rly re-using plastics by breaking the component parts down to then reconst
 ruct them.\n\nCurtis Watt\n\nCurtis is a performance poet\, rapper\, music
