Artist profile
Olivia Corbin-Phillip
Olivia Corbin-Phillip is a storyteller with a focus
on folktales and how they are altered each time
they are told. Olivia’s work allows children to
act as experts, with a focus on giving them
choices and creative control. Her work is driven
by the process, and each story looks different.
”I'm looking forward to building connections and having the support and space to work on my ideas. I am buzzing to be part of the programme and connecting with other artists passionate about early years work.

The Vital Spark behind everything we do
We believe that all children should be able to experience arts and culture, and that they should be able to see themselves represented in these experiences. This is not yet the case for every child and we’re committed to changing that.
Our response is Vital Spark, and it's at the heart of everything we do. Vital Spark is about challenging and changing the lack of diversity in children’s arts and culture; it’s about diverse-led artistic decision making; it’s about not being afraid to stand up for what’s right.
We do this by supporting artists who are currently underrepresented in children’s arts and culture. We also work with partner organisations to create world-class opportunities for these artists and share best practice.
