The New Art Gallery is delighted to be working with Outside In to present the charity’s National Open Exhibition ‘Shelter’ from 27 June – 19 October 2025. As part of the project, Chantal Pitts was selected for a 21-week residency and commission opportunity following an open call to makers and sculptors in the West Midlands.


Pitts’ practice focuses on the use of furniture and everyday objects to create sculptures, assemblages and installations that delve into personal identity and self-representation. She will use her residency to develop an interactive, den-like installation that will resonate with the theme of domestic shelter and serve as the exhibition’s information hub.
