Marcus Coates

Marcus Coates was born in 1968 in London, where he lives and works. At the core of Coates' work is a relationship to the unknowable. From his attempts to become animal to his vicarious experiences on behalf of individuals he seeks to uncover degrees of understanding and knowing, testing our definitions and boundaries of autonomy.

Simeon Barclay

Simeon Barclay is a British artist who was born in Huddersfield, UK in 1975. He draws upon fashion, music, and popular culture to make works that activate complex cultural histories and examine the ways in which we construct and perform identity and self. Combining found and appropriated imagery with text, video, installation and sculpture, Barclay creates reductive, sophisticated works that address aspects of British culture and the intersections of class, race and gender.

Laura Lancaster

Laura Lancaster was born in Hartlepool, UK in 1979. She lives and works in Newcastle Upon Tyne, UK. Lancaster makes paintings from an archive of anonymous photographs procured from thrift stores and flea markets. Her work transposes the forgotten and discarded snap-shots of strangers' lives into an ambiguous and uncanny territory between abstraction and figuration. Divorcing her subjects from their specific context and time, Lancaster renders these images uncanny and strange, relocating them to a place of collective memory and experience.
