    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.

    Josh's work is strongly influenced by his lived experiences, coming from a working class canal gypsy background, living with dyslexia and depression and being a gay man. His work often looks at everyday life from a 'different' point of view and creates work that is dramatic, absurd and arresting. He is based on the Isle of Wight and exhibits across the south and London.

    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.

    Egyptian–British–American artist based in London, I explore memory, transformation, and belonging through oil, acrylic, and mixed media. My work bridges classical techniques with experimental processes, from fluid pours to custom pigment alchemy, creating bold, emotionally charged pieces that invite reflection and connection.

    I am a contemporary painter whose work centres on colour, form and symbolism through large-scale still life paintings. Working in acrylic, I create compositions where ancient deities and symbolic objects inhabit lush, foliage-rich environments. Through expressive brushwork and vivid colour, I draw upon still life traditions while embracing a contemporary, intuitive approach.

    As a neurodivergent artist I greatly value the transformative power of art, having worked as a care worker with people with autism and other neurodivergent conditions for many years. Self expression, self realisation and actualisation are the central pillars of my artistic practise.

    As a self taught artist I create brave and bold, sea and land scapes created using oil paint and palette knives. Capturing nature’s elements, its extremes of light and dark, its stillness and ferocity. Hope just on the horizon. Originally from Sheffield now living in Derbyshire with my family. I travel the UK coastline to gain inspiration and experiences, which are put into my artwork.
