Residencies
Tacchi Morris Arts Centre
Gabriella Falk was lead artist during the development and building
of the Tacchi Morris Arts Centre, 1995-2000. As part of her own
contribution to the Public Art programme she led a residency project
which enabled year 7 children to design bronze paving slabs which
were inserted into the permanent paving outside the centre.

Langton Budville Primary School
Gabriella Falk worked with year 5 children on a fabric wall hanging
2 metres square for their school. Design work was developed from
a visit to a local nature reserve and the hanging was made by the
children in three days.

Freedom Fields Hospital, Plymouth
In 1998 Freedom Fields Hospital was demolished and subsumed into
Derriford Hospital.
Gabriella Falk spent a lengthy period as artist in residence working
with staff and patients to remember the old hospital and help them
make the move from local to regional NHS.
Patients made a number of textile pieces and a major tapestry was
commissioned from Gabriella Falk for the new Oncology Centre at
Derriford.
