asha-may
Digital work
Description
I am particularly intrigued by layering to give a sense of depth to images, which can trigger a variety of emotions and thoughts for the viewer. I like to marry text with
images in such a distinctive style which prompts viewers to reflect on political issues, leaving them questioning what is happening in the world. Joke the work below became
a forum of the exploration of these issues on both what we see and what we know. Putting the text inside the subject matter is a common technique I have used in my
work, as I consider it to be raw.

How To Name Your Emotions
`Eva Popović
Video
Description
How To Name Your Emotions is an instructional video highlighting the inability of technology to replicate genuine human emotions.
Emotions are typically recognised by those who feel them instinctively. However, for a population of people who feel them intensely or have a diagnosis of Borderline Personality Disorder they are difficult to discern.
In the video, a bespoke deepfake of the artist leads you through the Dialectical Behaviour Therapy model of correctly identifying your emotions. This model is used to teach people with emotional issues how to recognise and describe their emotions, step by step.
At last, comparison is made between the compound model and the frigidity of the AI.

Take Break Get Pay
April 29th, 2023
Mixed materials
yique work
On April 29th, 2023, at noon London time, the artist Yique placed five mattresses in front of the Piccadilly Circus screen in the center of London, inviting passersby to lie down and rest. Anyone who rested on the mattress could earn income provided by Yique at a rate of £12 per hour or £1.5 per 5 minutes.
Yique wrote in the filming agreement that ‘ Take Break Get Pay is a social experiment initiated by the artist Yique, hoping that everyone can view it in a relaxed manner regardless of whether they participate or not. He looks forward to your relaxation and participation! ’
In doing so Yique attempts to explore the interrelationship between giving and consuming in a capitalist society, the value definition of social behavior, and observing and being observed carrying out employment and consumption in public spaces. Through partly imperceptible staged interventions, he explores the differences in values of social classes and attempts to loosen the good and evil views defined by society under power relations.

ZEN
Shen Fung Lin
Drawing
Description
This series of works is inspired by
The "useless use" of the ancient Chinese thinker Zhuangzi
In addition to the traditional Chinese "碑拓" craft
Action painting that combines the two new "contamination methods''
"Uselessness" in Zhuangzi's Thought
Is to pursue a reasonable state of understanding in time and space
Without being restricted to the “useful” frame
Get rid of the concept of "use"
A prejudice to abandon "tools"
Often after transcending, it leads to a higher realm
I used natural stones with different textures
Rubbing its natural texture on paper
I used: Charcoal pen / charcoal pen / graphite / pencil / white charcoal... and other media
Aiming at the traditional "smoke method" in Chinese landscape painting
Experiments with subversion and innovation
And created this series of Shituo paintings
I use Zen as the core of my spirit
Conducted experimental creations of this series of Action painting
Zen is an abstract concept
As if the air is everywhere
But it's out of reach
What I want to convey through my work is
"Heaven, earth, mountains and rivers, all things have spirits, coexist with each other and exist in the way of harmony."
Such feelings that cannot be explained in words

Barking Flood Barrier
Rory Brooke
Screenprint
Description
The flood barrier is visible in the distance from miles around in East London. It is though difficult to get to with Beckton Sewage Treatment works in front of it. I found an obscure path down the River Roding and was rewarded with fascinating views of the barrier and the sewage outfall. I love the foreshore at low tide with the green stones, shingle, mud flats and white churned water. The colour and textures contrast with the grey concrete towers and blue gate. The flood barrier also highlights the question of climate change and adaptation. In future centuries London will either be mostly under water or even more substantial defences will be needed.

Scatter
Paul Spencer Clamp
Acrylic on canvas
Description
The painting is in the format of a horizontal rectangle.The outward appearance is of organic, segmented columns, or perhaps tubes, which move and disperse from left to right across the canvas. These structures may also be bacteria or plant-like fibres which move from a mass towards separation and ultimately dissolution. Behind this is the premise that everything is in motion,nothing is fixed, be it in the movement of stars across the sky, blood within a vein, sap within a leaf, or the atoms within a rock. All is in a state of flux, nothing is permanent, and although we try to impose order, to construct a narrative with which we feel secure, in the final equation all is chaos.

Vault
Paul Spencer Clamp
Acrylic on canvas
Description
The painting has three main elements, a field of points of light which runs diagonally across the canvas, two lines of abstracted clouds which also run diagonally, and a field of metallic blue which runs alongside and sometimes amongst the clouds. Metaphorically these three elements represent perhaps our aspirations and at the same time our limited, blinkered vision. We are beguiled by the beauty of the clouds and rarely see beyond them, yet the vault of space is there beyond the clouds if we were to only look for it. The vault of space represents itself but also the infinity of possible choices, and at the same time the ultimate destination for mankind, as well as the deeper meaning of infinity itself.

Attract/Repulse
Paul Spencer Clamp
Acrylic on canvas
Description
Outwardly, the dominant element of the painting is the three red/orange orbs fringed by idealised flames or perhaps magnetised extrusions that radiate out across a blue metallic ground which is populated with myriad small points of light. From an invisible point located just above the canvas,five rays of semi transparent yellow light radiate down across the orbs and points of light to eventually disappear from the lower edges of the canvas. The deeper dynamic of the painting is the underlying question of whether the flames or magnetised extrusions will meet and either interact harmoniously or cause friction/mutual destruction, which on another level is a paradigm for the current behaviour of sentient,especially human, life. The points of light are our potential and the yellow rays our possible salvation.

Broken heartwood
Paul Ferris
Wood veneer with cork backing, brass wire, waxed thread, sewing needle
Description
As a tree grows it builds, forming ring after ring. Once it's cut down it starts to dry out. The tensions within the wood build and cracks start to form. Eventually the tensions are too much and the wood cracks straight through the heart of the tree breaking many of those rings. The crack will not heal so we try our best to sew ourselves back together but again the pain is too much and our thread burns through. It is only with the help from others that really we can sew us back together again.

Natalia Serova
Canvas on a wooden stretcher, oil paints, Canvas. Size 50x60cm
Description
The painting depicts a woman holding two babies in her arms. This is the mother of the twins, she gently and carefully protects them, and it will always be so, even when the children grow up and leave the house, but until that moment it will not be soon. In the background of the picture is a dark sky. The constellation Gemini can be seen in the sky. In ancient times, when people believed in spirits, they believed that they could take on human form, which is why they called them angels. Angels protect and protect their wards. It is a symbol of love and happiness.

Pen on paper
Description
My intimate connection with nature provides a rhythm to my art which makes it relevant to the environment I exist in. I wanted to create a sense of awe in nature, demonstrating that nature can be used to highlight philosophical ideas about our connection with it. I aim to give the viewer a sense of wellbeing, of wholeness and escapism when they look at my pieces, whilst I use nature to help me develop my own artistic language.
My work aims to illustrate that we are inseparable from nature, our whole lives depend on the earth which sustains our very life force.
Through my pen drawing I do not seek to replicate exactly what I see, but a version of it. I do this by closely studying my subject and working repeatedly on detail, until I have a good enough representation of it.

A collage of words and images underlie this painting of a woodland scene. The words, some more hidden than others, reflect the feelings I have about walking though a woodland area. Texture, which is built up in the final layer, suggests the wildness of the undergrowth.

Hever Whispers
Liz Murray
Oil on Canvas
Description
Hever Castle is a stunning setting with a history of secrets and sadness. Capturing the morning mist rising at the castle I have deliberately placed focus on the topiary here, as the castle itself has almost become lost to the splendour of the gardens.

Ice-cream
Kristina Maršíková
colored ink, acrylic, wax on canvas
Description
The painting captures the moment when a person is completely absorbed in eating ice cream and there is nothing else at the moment. The endless repetition of ice creams in the background places the image outside of time on a transcendental level. My son Rafael was the model for the painting.

Yorkshire Dales in spring
Kate Clarke
Oil on canvas
Description
After one of the summer hikes in Malham few years ago I took this picture that I soon painted. I tried to capture the vibrant colours of the summer when the nature bursting and thriving, can imagine the warmth in the ear and the sounds of nature - the stream, gentle breeze, birds twitching.
During the pandemic when we all missing the nature due to isolation - I found my little escape to the nature in painting.

Walk along the canal

The picture was taken on the walk along the canal and I challenged myself to paint the flow of water and all the reflections of the greenery along the canal and the bridge under which the picture was taken.

Broken Limbs and Bodies
Jun Shya
Oil, Acrylic and Tape on Canvas
Description
‘What if your past, present, and future are happening all at once?’ Intrigued by the astonishing theory known as the “block universe”, Jun’s multi-medium paintings explore ever-present events through blurring the line between the past, present, and future. Her works shift between abstraction and representation with a diverse range of painterly methods and dynamic compositions. The recurring silhouette figure sitting on a chair is created through found images and her own imagination inspired by a mysterious figure she perceived in her dream. Both incongruous and mysterious, her paintings invite viewers to interpret and raise questions of whether things she perceives are from our unconscious desires or reality.

Seascape II
Joshua Obara Norwood
(Assemblage) Recycled Plastic on Acrylic on Recycled Paper on Canvas
Description
In effect, this work uses recycled homemade paper, repurposed scrap plastic and fabric that would have been landfilled. The process behind this is that a painting is created on the paper layer then plastic is overlayed above it and then repainted with a new vision of the seascape after it had been affected by the plastic pollution. Therefore, it results in this beautiful texture and expressive feel for the environment yet albeit fearful.
