  • Ruth Calland
    Ruth Calland is a contemporary British painter, and also a Jungian analyst, ilving and working in London. Emergence and attunement to what is emergent, are the experiences that engage her. She has a deep interest in alchemy, which provides a framework for how she thinks about painting as process. She will often utilise two different points of reference and see them as creating an interactive field, within which she operates in order to investigate their relationship. She has a longstanding interest in gender, and her exploration of gender fluidity in her participative performance project Carnival of Souls took place across the E17 Arts Festival and the Folkestone Triennial in 2013. She presented this work at the conference ‘Alchemy: Exploring Metaphorical Transformations and Arts-Based Research’ at Oxford University in 2023. In the pandemic she was inspired by the early vampire film Nosferatu, with its monochrome landscapes, haunted by anxiety about infection by the supernatural other. At this time she also began researching trans experiences of being feared and othered, discussed by creators on TikTok. Her current work uses stills from these videos to amplify and celebrate trans voices, using high key colour to celebrate their cultural emergence from the shadows, and a redefinition of what it means to be natural, or true to nature.  Ruth is a member of Contemporary British Painting and has exhibited nationally and internationally, including at Transition Gallery, Flowers East, Doncaster Museum and Art Gallery, Vestry House Museum, Hastings Museum and Art Gallery, and the Dulwich Festival. She has curated shows for APT, Walthamstow Wetlands, and Salthouse Gallery. She was included in the Made In Britain, 80 Painters of the 21st Century, at Yantai Museum, Nanjing and Tianjin in China, and Gdansk, Poland in 2019; she was selected for the New Contemporaries at the ICA and Bluecoat Galleries, was a prize-winner at Southwark Gallery Open, Painting Fellow at Gloucester Art College, a Rome Scholar runner up, Boise Travelling Scholarship winner, and included twice in the Marmite Prize for Painting. In 2022 she was artist in residence atPasture Project Space, Sudbury andrecently a finalist at the Artworks Open 2023, (Barbican Arts Trust). She lectures and writes on creative processes within Jungian psychoanalysis and in 2018 won the Fordham Prize for her paper ‘Race, Power and Intimacy’.  website: www.ruthcalland.com https://www.ruthphilo.co.uk/a-geography-of-colour.html

  • Mallory Page
    Mallory Page is a contemporary American painter, based in New Orleans. Mallory’s paintings employ multiple layers and hues of acrylic wash that cascade across large scaled canvas. Her interests lie in the study of the psyche, dreams and the subconscious.  She often tethers psychic sensations or observations to build work about creating deeper interactions with the sublime. Mallory was raised in Lafayette, Louisiana, a region with a vibrant, often mystical, culture and distinctive geographical landscape. She holds a B.I.D. from Louisiana State University and is currently a candidate for a Master’s in Fine Art from The Art Institute of Chicago.

  • Charley Peters
    Charley Peters is a contemporary British painter, who lives and works in London. She makes paintings where abstract language and screen aesthetics collide, remixing familiar motifs from art history, retro gaming, and internet culture. Charley explores contemporary painting as an expanded practice that is both physical and virtual, and not limited to the surface of a canvas. Although essentially abstract, her works remind us of our real world, suggesting a transition in our ways of seeing from the once-radical non-representation of high modernism to the everydayness of digital imagery. By working in the public sphere as well as in the studio, Charley’s work connects with a diverse range of audiences and reminds us that the power of creativity can change lives, enhance spaces and to experience the world differently.   Charley exhibits internationally, showing recently at Hauser & Wirth (London), Meakin + Parsons (Oxford), Yantai Art Museum (Yantai), and National Museum of Gdansk (Gdansk). Her clients include Meta, ITV, London Art Fair, House of Vans and Hospital Rooms. Charley completed a PhD in Fine Art Theory and Practice and has contributed to writing about painting to online and print publications. She is a visiting tutor at Fine Art at City & Guilds of London Art School, an offsite mentor at Turps Art School and a Postgraduate Senior Lecturer at UAL. https://charleypeters.com/ https://www.ruthphilo.co.uk/a-geography-of-colour.html

  • Marius von Brasch
    Marius von Brasch is German-British painter who lives and works on the Isle of Wight. His work highlights the power of unconscious filters that shape perception. Imagination, affects and memories, which pervade social life, history and the life of the soul, play a significant role in the emergence of each painting and work on paper. Marius’s practice aims to translate these layers and their different relationships to time. The emotional dynamics of colour and how to contain and give form to what seems to evade representation are central to the work. Figures and fragmented narratives in the paintings constellate multiple polarities and also, often echoing mythologies, deal with ideological postures prevalent today. He finds parallels to his approach in Renaissance illuminations in alchemical manuscripts and quotes them indirectly in his work. This symbolic alchemical imagery addresses journeys of identities and evolution of consciousness while proposing transformative ways of working with conflict and diversity. Marius’s interest here is to find new painterly ways to speak about these subjects and a dialogue with classical and contemporary painting allows him to be part of an ongoing living tradition. Marius received his MA with distinction from Winchester School of Art (Uni of Southampton) where he also completed his practice-based PhD in Fine Art Painting. He was awarded the Abbey Fellowship in Painting at The British School in Rome in 2013. With a background in psychotherapy and literature, Marius teaches experiential approaches to painting as well as courses on art and literature. His work is held in the Priseman Seabrook Collection, the University of Essex Modern and Contemporary British Art Collection, and in international private collections. He is represented by Jenn Singer Gallery, New York.

  • Jenny Eden
    Jenny is a Contemporary British painter, writer and lecturer based in the North West of England. Emerging from a process of close making and the complex relationship between two active objects of being, Jenny’s paintings embody the potential for visual and psychological oscillation. In this exchange between painter and painting, the process arrives at curious and insubstantial 'part-objects', simultaneously ‘separate from’ and ‘part of’ monochromatic spatial fields, operating in obscure, surface-smooth colour (un)realities.  Jenny received a BA in Fine Art from Birmingham School of Art in 2000, an MFA in Fine Art from Manchester School of Art in 2017 and she is currently undertaking a By Practice PhD in Painting at Manchester School of Art. Jenny lectures in Fine Art Painting at Manchester School of Art on the BA Fine Art and MA Painting programmes and she is Level 4 Year Leader in Fine Art. She also co-runs Oceans Apart, a gallery in Salford dedicated to contemporary painting, and she has exhibited her own work both nationally and internationally.
