    I am a self-taught painter based in Newcastle upon Tyne. Working primarily with acrylic on canvas, my practice combines deconstructed figuration and gestural abstraction to explore contemporary socio-political themes, historical painting, and wider theoretical and philosophical questions.

    I am a sustainable textile artist and designer exploring the intersection of craft, storytelling, and wellbeing. Using embroidery, layering, and fabric manipulation, I transform overlooked materials into textiles that celebrate resilience. My work, often shaped by personal health experiences, empowers women and gives voice to hidden stories.

    I am an emerging artist and trainee Art Therapist based in the Midlands, UK. Working through a dual lens, my practice explores the interplay between personal experience and wider social structures that shape our identities and possibilities. I am drawn to the quiet power of textiles: the stories it holds, the memories it carries, and meanings embedded in the weave of the cloth.

    Through my work I want to explore the mythological representation of women and how stories have been influenced and reengineered by patriarchy. How women have been written out of folklore and how stories have been changed to fit in with this ideology.

    Glen Ogden is a Leeds-based artist working in sculpture and performance. His practice explores labor, value, and futility through endurance-based actions and industrial motifs, reframing repetitive work as both monumental and absurd while exposing the physical and psychological costs of a work-oriented society.

    I am a teacher of Geography and until a few years ago I never thought I had a creative bone in my body. I then discovered wood turning and the joy of shaping wood as if it was clay. I have rapidly moved away from traditional wood turning and like to use a variety of non-traditional wood and different materials that enhance the wood. I like form and shape inspired by nature.

    I’m a UK-based reduction linocut artist creating nature-inspired prints for those who rarely switch off.
