The Full Story
Pyromancy Productions C.I.C. was founded and is led by Phaedra Samantha, a multidisciplinary artist, creative facilitator and performer whose work spans community art, creative wellbeing, Flow Arts, public engagement, performance and participatory projects.
Pyromancy is supported by its board of directors and by a growing network of freelance artists, facilitators, performers and creative practitioners.
Rather than trying to do everything through one permanent team, we bring in people with the right creative skills and experience for each project.
This allows us to work across a wide range of disciplines while also creating paid opportunities for local artists and practitioners.
Phaedra
Phaedra is an artist, creative practitioner and arts and crafts facilitator working across Liverpool City Region. She has delivered hundreds of creative workshops with children, adults, families, community groups and SEND participants, using a wide range of artforms, materials and creative approaches.
As founder and creative lead of Pyromancy Productions C.I.C., her work spans community art, creative wellbeing, Flow Arts, performance and participatory projects
Katy
Katy is a multidisciplinary artist and maker with a practice that has grown from crochet into a much wider exploration of materials, craft and creative experimentation. She has exhibited and sold her work locally, delivered creative workshops including Crochet & Calm, and continues to develop work spanning textiles, accessories and mixed creative processes. Katy brings both an artist’s perspective and hands-on experience of community creativity to Pyromancy’s board.
Mia
Mia brings extensive experience in creative development, project management and building spaces where artists and communities can thrive. She has worked across Liverpool’s creative sector for around two decades, with previous projects including Make Huyton Village, Northern Lights, Homebaked Anfield and FACT. Her work has consistently focused on creative enterprise, community development, arts-led regeneration and creating sustainable opportunities for artists and makers.
