Bio
Tim Stephens
Belinda is a brilliant strategist and has the vision to re-invent public art and the aesthetics of the built environment, putting heart back into the public realm. A very timely and necessary development!
Binita Walia
I was employed by Belinda to create a series of artworks and mentor an artist for a new hospital (Lanchester Road, Durham). Belinda is wonderful to work with, she is diplomactic and balances the needs of the client and the creation of exceptional artworks beautifully. She helped me work though the tricky areas of the project and supported my ideas and helped resolve issues easily. I had a really good experience working on this project and would highly recommend Belinda as an art consultant.
