Elaine Duigenan is a photographic artist, whose work takes a close look at objects as in her current exhibition Blossfeldt's Apprentice. Things are never quite what they seem and her work is pared down to find singular beauty. Pale specimens glow in inky black spaces and appear to hang by a thread. There is strength and fragility, […]

The relationship between found ephemera and the narrative that is bestowed upon these items by a viewer encapsulates Molly Rooke's practice. Interested in collections of tourist culture […]
The exhibition From the Same Source I have not Taken, centres around faith, trust, coercion and the gap between real experience and artificial effect, and whether the constructed collective experience can be as meaningful as a genuine encounter.
The exhibition is a collection of works by women called Women Can't Paint.
Pregnancy is one of the most extreme states of the human condition, according to art theorist Amelia Jones, as it reveals the ‘tension between self as subject and self as object’. The final display from the ISelf Collection takes its title from Paloma Varga Weisz’s ambiguously gendered pregnant figure, Bumped Body, reflecting on shifting concepts of selfhood. 23 […]

American-born artist Nancy Fouts is best known for her distinctive sculptural works, which reconfigure commonplace objects and materials with a characteristically playful and provocative humour.

This exhibition, Down the Rabbit Hole, addresses the recurring […]

Close Quarters is a new body of work by London based artist Hanae Wilke. Informed by her surroundings and starting with an observation, Wilke constructs sculptures and installations from industrial materials such as metal, pipes, brackets, fibreglass and resin. These works borrow qualities from existing and familiar objects, structures, forms, and systems that are often […]
Cornelia Baltes’ brightly coloured paintings combine simplicity with humour and playfulness. Real-world observations are stripped back to their simplest form; creating new abstract patterns and rhythms. Their bold graphic qualities often spilling out, over the surface and on to the walls and surrounding architecture in which they inhabit. Lightbox, is a a new site specific work […]
