Judy Buxton's inspiration is drawn from the surrounding landscape of the Lizard Peninsular, Cornwall - its tracts of brown ancient earth contrasted with verdant watery passages, ribboning the landscape. Her large painterly canvasses of light and reflection evoke a strong physical sense. The paint becomes the air and light that surrounds her in a built […]

The first in a 12-month programme dedicated to the writings of the German-born, American political philosopher Hannah Arendt, ‘The Modern Age’ extends Arendt’s examination of tradition and the modern age into the twentieth and twenty-first centuries or what she understood as “the modern world.” We are living through a very difficult period of history marked […]
Emma Cousin’s figurative paintings feature dynamic, carnivalesque scenarios that explore the space between realism and fantasy, felt experience and communication. Responding to the limitations of language when used to articulate the complexities of human experience and emotions, Cousin considers how we might interact without it, in pre- or post-linguistic states. Taking this idea of ‘the […]
Liz Fontaine works with performance, drawing, text and video. Concerned with sex, relationships, people and politics, her live performances are excruciatingly funny: filled with heartbreak, devastation and charm. In Hurt Agony Pain Love It, Fontaine's compulsive, titillating and densely detailed drawings take the viewer on a journey through her mind. Part diary, part fantasy and part […]

Taking inspiration from Central Core Imagery, this two-part online exhibition explores the work of leading female ceramicists: Lynda Benglis, with her Bird’s Nest Series; Zoe Williams creates unwearable shoes; and Jacqueline Poncelet creates abstract forms infused with sexuality.

Elene Chantladze's exhibition, August War, includes a selection of both new and earlier work, showing her breadth of painterly technique and, material, exploration.
Vanessa Baird’s work is story telling of a kind that is both potently provocative and emphatically individual. Her charged creations, made in pastel and watercolour, range from room-size murals to intimate self-portraits and draw on a wide range of references from her own lived experiences, as well as from Scandinavian folklore and literature. This exhibition, If ever there were an end to a story […]
