Jim Ever is the recipient of the 2025 Yorkshire Graduate Award, a unique residency opportunity for a recent graduate from a Yorkshire-based university. 

Recently graduated from Sheffield Hallam University with a BA in Fine Art, his multi-disciplinary practice spans sound, collage, assemblage, image-making, video, installation, and sculpture. His work often brings together unexpected materials, exploring the relationship between analogue and digital technologies, and finding new conversations between traditional and experimental methods. 

He will spend two weeks in residence at YSP in January 2026 where he hopes to take inspiration from the Park’s natural landscape and historic trees to develop new work that reimagines our relationship with nature. He plans to experiment with image-making, projection and sound to produce a large-scale, audio-visual installation in the Boathouse from 28-31 August.
