Margaret Ashman is a printmaker whose etchings focus on sign language and dance. Her interests include exploring gesture and sign as the root of language; transformation and transcendence.

Karen Bosy

Inside here uses mobile platform technology and is based on poetic symbols related to space, altitude and daydreaming. This artwork juxtaposes poetic symbolism with reality and is free for iOS and Android.  Participants can 'share' to my blog and in this way contribute to creating an online artwork.
In a related series of digital prints, this may be important, I re-contextualize spaces where I live and work.

Anne-Helen English

At the core of my work is my fascination with all aspects of nature.
How we interact with and are affected by the natural world , subliminally and overtly, is part of what I continue to explore.

Chris Gough

Chris Gough's practice has for many years involved revisiting, re-configuring and improvising on earlier work on paper.  Past and present interact to create chance informed pictorial encounters.

Tony Hull

Archive photographs of cultural festivals and rallies are re-enacted in the studio, documented and made into composite images. Emptied of historical context and geographical signposts, painting itself becomes the site for these now diffident, slightly self-conscious ceremonies.

Pat Kaufman

I am interested in how seating in a landscape confers a sense of ownership and often changes perceptions of how the landscape is used or came about.

Faith Vincent

 The current series is titled Holweg, which is Anglo Saxon for ‘hollow way’ – a path carved out by footfall. The drawings are made of marble dust: imperceptibly slight layers, gathering and swelling, gradually becoming and finding their own footing.

Charlie Warde

“Warde represents an upsurge in interest in Brutalism amongst artists, at a time when Britain is rapidly divesting itself of its ‘failed’ Brutalist heritage. For artists like Warde, Brutalism has become source material – something to be observed, quoted, appropriated – a part of art history.”

Paul Wood

Paul Wood's work is a conversation between various, potentially conflicting, aspects of creative production including control and surprise, language and form, analogue and digital. He plays in the area between the real, the manipulated and the reproduced.
