Olivia Foskett
I'm a young woman artist, fascinated with decay and collapse, with our built environment, with dark explorative portraiture, with the ocean, with gothic and feminist literature, with cave drawings... I could go on.
I create paintings, photographs and drawings, responding to any of the above.
Influences include Anselm Kiefer, the great JMW Turner, Caspar David Freidrich and more.
I also have a creative writing practice, a background in literature and in sustainable business and marketing.
Luana Pontes
Hey! I'm Luana, an experimental writer based in both London and Essex, looking to get permanently stuck in the literary and performing arts industries!
I graduated from my MA in Creative Writing at Queen Mary University of London with a Distinction, and graduated from the same institution with a 1st Class Hons in BA English with Creative Writing. I am currently a Youth Engagement Officer at London Bubble Theatre Company; working in full time in marketing and communications.
I am in the process of writing my first fictional memoir and specialise in writing in hybrid genres and adopting 'ludic writing strategies' in my work. I am a multi-faceted writer. Poems, short-stories, critical essays, journals, articles, theatre scripts and reviews - I write and read them all. Being an unconventional writer has not been a hiderence to my career development, I have had the pleasure of working as an academic researcher, marketing intern, workshop facilitator programme participant and assistant producer during my studies, too.
My greatest achivement has been being able to set up my Creative Writing workshop platform for aspiring writers across London, nos: Creative Writing. At nos: Creative Writing, I faciliate workshops on different writing techniques, share inspiring writing materials and offer free 1-2-1 feedback on the devlopment of participant's personal writing projects. An enthusiastic supporter of everything literary and creative, I look forward to growing my platform and reaching greater audiences as I have many plans and projects I would like to fulfil in this collaborative space.

Bob Grant
I am a recently graduated artist whose creative journey began in the vibrant streets of Manchester. After earning my Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Leeds, I have quickly gained attention for my distinctive approach to contemporary painting and mixed media. My work often explores themes of identity, urban life, and the interplay between memory and reality, blending bold colours and textured layers to evoke emotion and dialogue.
My final year exhibition was praised for its innovative use of reclaimed materials and subtle social commentary. I am passionate about community engagement and frequently volunteer for local arts programmes, believing in the power of creativity to inspire change. As I embark on my professional practice, I am eager to collaborate with fellow artists and develop my portfolio, aspiring to contribute to the British art scene with fresh perspectives and meaningful connections.

Ryan Boultbee
‘For me, Ryan’s work had an after effect; when the everything came down, the space was transformed into a kind of ready-made,
so his work changed my experience of every show that followed.’
His creative process is led by an exploration of materials, often found in the building he's exploring. He works in a space related to the built environment, but different from it;
tinting the viewer’s experience and prompting their imagination. Ryan's actions encourage a different way of seeing by inviting the viewer to investivate
beneath the surface of an experience.

Karolina Kanska
I am from Ukraine but now live in England. Photography is my passion. Since my childhood I wanted to leave memories of the best moments, because unfortunately our eyes can not do it for us, and from the memory some of them can be forgotten.
I take a photo of how much I remember, but professionally only for 2 years.
The most important thing for me is to show my essence and emotions for the world. When photographing people, I put all my soul into the process.

Mark Noble
Mark Noble is an English artist based in Somerset, UK. His works shine a new light on the under-valued aspects of the world in which we live. Often specialising in landscape paintings and abstract work, he infuses his worlds with a melancholic and spiritual beauty.
After a difficult time at school (dealing with autism and severe dyslexia) and spending nearly 20 years working in a local plastics factory, Mark set out to pursue his dream of becoming an artist. Inspired by the work of Turner, he expresses the mystical, dream-like and sublime, through delicate attention to the commonplace or overlooked.
Mark has exhibited paintings across the UK and Europe and has received interest from as far afield as South America. He is currently running art workshops to encourage those who, like him, have creative dreams yet to be fully realised.
Work was recently sold at a large exhibition in London (the OXO Gallery) to raise awareness of Parkinson’s Disease and paintings are on display in several other galleries around England. In March 2021, Mark became an ambassador for a charity called 'Outside In' – their aim is to assist and promote disabled artists. He is also busy working on private commissions, exhibiting, developing new ideas and getting children involved with art (one Lottery-funded project involved children painting a mural at a local school in Glastonbury).
Moving forward, Mark wants to promote environmentally friendly art as much as possible. His ‘Driftwood Collection’ features art painted on recycled materials such as old tiles, window frames, bark and even old coffee table tops!
Sheena Bulpitt
Ever curious and a bit of a rebel...I am an artist who embraces freedom of expression and encourages others to be who they are too.
My paintings provide reminders of beauty, strength and resilience. An invitation to explore who you are, our connections to each other and to nature.
Amber Varney
I'm an 20 year old student studying Graphic communication at Norwich University of the Arts
I started my Instagram account for my work a little over a year ago and since then I have started an Etsy page and a website selling my work to various customers around the world. Since then, I have continued commissions alongside focusing on my degree.
Myself and my friend set up a fundraising/ charity organisation in Brighton which invites young creatives to paint and draw in various styles and with various mediums. One session had upwards of 20 participants, we observe social distancing of course. We then sell these pieces (one painting sold for £50!) and donate all proceeds go to local Brighton charity BMEYPP (black and minority ethnic young people's project).
I really would love to further my experience in the creative field by possibly doing an apprenticeship or internship alongside my degree to gain experience and put my skills to practice.

Lina Vourlou
I am a moving image and installation artist playing with the physicality of colour and exploring metaphysical theories around reality.
