    Karen Thompson is a contemporary ceramics artist whose work draws on historic and modern influences to blend themes of satire and humour with social commentary. Her practice delves into iconic imagery, twisting and subverting it to tell modern-day stories that are rich in social and political meanings.

    My practice explores landscape as a contemporary and evolving discipline, rooted in the traditions of academic art yet driven by personal experience and emotional investigation. I approach the landscape not simply as a subject to be represented, but as a living space of memory, movement, and transformation

    I am an artist based in West Yorkshire and Iam an emerging artist. I have always had a passion for wildlife and wildlife conservation. So, it makes sense that I would naturally turn to wildlife art. My style is hyper-realistic with an attention to detail. I have a collaboration with the wildlife charity, Liberian Chimpanzee Rescue and Rehabilitation Charity and 2 other Primate Charities.

    I am a French‑born, London‑based textile and mixed‑media artist. My practice explores memory, heritage, and belonging through hand‑stitched sculpture, salvaged materials, and site‑responsive installations. I create works that invite reflection on the emotional and material landscapes we carry with us.

    I am a multi-media artist based in Yorkshire working in sculpture, performance, photography, video, printmaking and artist’s books. Much of my work is inspired by and takes place in, the landscape around me. Often I am the only audience for my on-site installations, works translated into artist’s books and digitally printed images, crossing the boundary between documentary and primary artwork.

    Sal is known for her expressive portraits that capture fleeting emotions rather than fixed likenesses. Working in rich layers of oil paint, she draws on film, media, and her own imagery to create characters who feel both familiar and mysterious. With titles often borrowed from dialogue, her paintings hint at stories without telling them outright, leaving space for the viewer to step in.
