Curated by Harriet Hammond, MAFA (First Class Hons.) https://video.wixstatic.com/video/2fcede_9e9e8a4c226f43609b0ca35a905ea854/1080p/mp4/file.mp4 Georgia May Broadley (@mayartist_) Georgia Bristow’s work explores themes of camouflage and survival, using vibrant colours to contrast with deeper psychological and societal meanings. Her art serves as a metaphor for personal and collective pressures, particularly the curated self-presentation shaped by social media. This reflects her own experiences with imposter syndrome and the concept of constructing a personal camouflage. Through her work, she highlights the tension between inviting appearances and hidden truths, encouraging people to embrace authenticity despite societal expectations. https://video.wixstatic.com/video/2fcede_20bdc217efba4d0d9bcf734af9521789/1080p/mp4/file.mp4 Hannah Kate Absalom (@hkaart) Hannah Kate Absalom is a multidisciplinary artist whose work explores the intersections of religious iconography, horror, and queerness. She re-contextualizes biblical imagery and symbolism, blending sacred, medieval, and science fiction elements to present contemporary expressions of dystopia and apocalypse. Absalom employs various mediums, including oil painting, printmaking, and moving-image work, often drawing inspiration from Renaissance painting, surrealist film, and the installation-like qualities of religious spaces. She now holds a Master's degree in Fine Art from Central Saint Martins, graduating with first-class honors in 2024, and was awarded the Cass Art Graduate Prize. https://video.wixstatic.com/video/2fcede_d79e25b9f1f74c4bb0dd1fc557d2cc9a/1080p/mp4/file.mp4 Meejaah (@meejaah) Meejaah’s work explores the intersection of personal experience, mythology, and perception , drawing from their lived experience with Derealisation-Depersonalisation Disorder (DPRD). Rather than viewing it through a clinical lens, Meejaah transforms this altered state of reality into a dreamlike, cinematic world, mythologising the mundane to create new narratives. Their character-based work personifies the condition - an "animalified" embodiment of the detachment and uncanniness that comes with DPRD. Through photography, film, and visual storytelling, Meejaah navigates the tension between knowing the world is real and feeling otherwise, highlighting how the brain’s coping mechanisms can both shield and distort our perception of reality. https://video.wixstatic.com/video/2fcede_875c4714b1904fbb88effa5c018180f5/1080p/mp4/file.mp4 https://video.wixstatic.com/video/2fcede_e9791236c58e45a2bf1122f3f74e9c49/1080p/mp4/file.mp4 Joshua Obichere (@j_n_artcsm) Joshua Obichere is a multidisciplinary artist and art educator based in London. He now holds an MA in Fine Art from Central Saint Martins (UAL) and a Master's in Education from the University of Cambridge, focusing on Social Justice and the Curriculum. Joshua is the founder of Skin Deep Education, an initiative aimed at promoting inclusivity and cultural diversity in education. His artistic practice delves into themes of the Black male body, African wax prints, and faith, critically exploring the intersections of identity and culture. ualshowcase.arts.ac.uk https://video.wixstatic.com/video/2fcede_c3b3f64fc4d94d4a96d8009d4154ba46/1080p/mp4/file.mp4 Sandra Zanetti (@sandrazanetti_) Sandra Zanetti is an internationally exhibiting multidisciplinary artist whose performances and installations unveil unconscious fears and desires, drawing inspiration from both local and global sources. Her work deconstructs the complexities of human experience, often weaving together physical compositions that utilise a unique visual language informed by various world cultures, iconographies, and socioeconomic theories. Zanetti has deep interests in language, embodiment, symbols, world-building, and the cyclicality of time concerning progression, innovation, and regression. sandrazanetti.com art-gab.blubrry.net https://video.wixstatic.com/video/2fcede_85687960603545c0932db6c0941464df/1080p/mp4/file.mp4 Hollie Palmer (@holl_palmer) Hollie Palmer is a London-based artist who explores the interplay between personal memories, emotional bonds with landscapes, and the events that tether individuals to specific places. Her work often involves creating tufted sculptures and textiles that reflect these themes. Palmer's creations have been featured in venues such as The Shop Tremenheere, and she has crafted pieces in response to exhibitions like the Mike Kelley exhibition at Tate Modern. ualshowcase.arts.ac.uk instagram.com https://video.wixstatic.com/video/2fcede_fde6601b5d7f460a8b99b410b5300ad0/1080p/mp4/file.mp4 Em Bristow (@_dood1es) Em Bristow, also known as Em Doodles, is a 24-year-old transgender artist, writer, and musician based in East London. Their work spans various mediums, and they have collaborated with producer and musician Charles Cave. Em's projects often explore themes of identity and personal experience. All pieces and fragments of Doodles' practice are enmeshed through the regurgitating of memories and language into sculptural, sonic and linguistic modes of creating. The work is fed by the wider context of mortuary practice, biopolitics, and ecology. With particular interest in the role of the corpse in conjunction with the trans body. Doodles' posits the systemically stifled power of bodies that are in a state of transition. Doodles' work engages with the ways all bodies exist in a state of flux and in exchange with linguistic systems of power. The works explore love and loss through abject, hybrid corpse sculptures, the honoring of incomplete bodies, and cyclical ideas. Repetition is deployed within Doodles' writing and visual motifs to situate the corp se in a new, boundless realm that allows for its leakage, mess and ambivalence. ualshowcase.arts.ac.uk https://video.wixstatic.com/video/2fcede_2c8390b77c8c416c8457c342b887d744/1080p/mp4/file.mp4 Harriet Hammond (@h.rriet.) Born in 2000, Harriet Hammond is an artist from Gravesend who recently completed her Master of Fine Arts at Central Saint Martins in London with First Class Honours and curated this exhibition. Her work has been featured in several exhibitions, and she draws inspiration from 1970s food art, toys, theatre, children's TV shows, and family dynamics to explore themes of fantasy, nostalgia, and consumption. ualshowcase.arts.ac.uk Fourth Portal Harriets' installation shows a vibrant table of clay sculptures, featuring a feast of fake food and two life-size human-animal characters seated at the table. Drawing inspiration from 70s food art, toys, theatre, children's TV shows, and family dynamics, the piece explores themes of fantasy, nostalgia, consumption and class. An over-stimulation of color and texture dominates the piece, with bright paints and shiny resin giving a wet, grotesque look. Each element is hand sculpted and detailed with a cocktail stick, creating an intricate and colourful world. Final Show The short, two man performance with Harriet Hammond and Georgia May Broadley (above), shows an angry chef with crab claw hands, "cooking" fake food for the fake characters at the table. Accompanying is an anxious waitress, whose struggle highlights themes of anxiety and people-pleasing within the chaotic world of hospitality. The performance transforms the installation into a fever dream-like experience, where costumed characters navigate the surreal dining scenario. By presenting the food sculptures in both conventional and unconventional manners, the performance amplifies the overstimulation with movement and sound, creating a dynamic experience that engages viewers in a fantastical, yet relatable narrative. Bodie Stanley ( @bodie.stanley ) Bodie Stanley is a London-based artist whose multidisciplinary practice encompasses sound, print, painting, sculpture, and installation. Born in 1988 in Atherton, Queensland, Australia, Stanley moved to Hackney, London, at the age of five and has spent the majority of their life in the city. Their work is deeply rooted in social engagement, often exploring themes of urban experience and the interplay between individuals and their environments. Stanley's creative process integrates both digital manipulation and manual handcrafting techniques, reflecting a commitment to materiality and sensory engagement. Notable projects include "Designated Noise Barricade," a sound installation that invites viewers to interact with structures reminiscent of urban barriers, transforming them into playful instruments. Stanley holds a Master of Arts in Fine Art from Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design and has exhibited in various venues, contributing to London's contemporary art scene. bodiestanley.co.uk ualshowcase.arts.ac.uk The opening event has ended | Exhibition ran until 13 March 2024.
