Lauren Keeley
Lauren Keeley’s practice encompasses multiple processes of image-making mixing the cool, computer-precise style of digital fabrication with the warm, tactile quality of hand-made processes.

Panicattack Duo was selected for Bloomberg New Contemporaries 2018.

Arianne Churchman
Working predominantly through film, performance and sound, my practice focuses upon the folklore of the British Isles. Beginning with research it uses folklore as its primary material, drawing out folk’s inherent wonky temporalities and histories as it travels through other idiosyncratic and time-stamped cultural tendencies.
