Inspired by tales of the past, Portuguese folklore and magical portals into history, I ask you to come with me on journeys and investigate seemingly meaningless aspects of daily life!

FOCM aka Flo Main is a multidisciplinary artist working and living in London, engaging with multiple personal and collaborative (BLOAT Collective) visual art practices. Currently showing a solo exhibition of paintings; SPRING SUMMER at GLOAM Gallery, Sheffield - a collection of works that compresses themes of love, nature and artefact apropos the seasons they are made. With these works Flo continues a practice of drawing quickly and on a large scale, on intimate and observational moments from life, photographs and imagination. These are friends at rest, freshly sprung trees, a backseat view - all familiar, believable. The combination of an uncanny colour language with a painterly flatness sees everything within the frame rendered with equal importance, encouraging the idea of multiple points of view filled within a single surface.

By the method of recording and animating, Flo redraws spaces so that the familiar becomes strange, with carefully detailed representations sitting alongside pure abstraction in the same scene. This embrace of contradiction insists on the here and now coexisting with an internal mutability - where an intuitive exploration of chaos creates the possibility for new motifs, through both painting and queerness.

Hannah Machover is a writer-printmaker. Her work is (an)notational, with specific figures and objects recurring across mediums; spectral, anchoring. Her drawings, writings and prints are full of the traces of editing, spilling out of their given frames, often rooted in oral tales and anecdotes.

Hannah Tilson graduated with a BA from the Slade School of Fine Art in 2018, during this time she studied on exchange at the New York Studio School. Tilson is interested in the human form, pattern and colour. She makes her own paint and camouflages herself in a vibrating and fragmented space, viewing her body and the fabrics she is encompassed in as a landscape. The figure is masked and ambiguous but there is something left for you to hold onto in this fast moving, turbulent space.

Lucy Bruce-Gardner is a London-based photographer from Berkshire (b.1996). Her work is centred around photography’s potential to transcend mere documentation and become a medium for storytelling and cultivating meaningful connections. It is through this lens she navigates the world; playfully creating and conveying narratives, and celebrating idiosyncrasies which unite individuals together as a collective. Lucy’s images present a world with no script; they live in a balanced harmony between candidness and subtle direction, allowing her subjects to reveal new ways of representing themselves.

Nathalie Hollis translates visual scenes into physical experiences through lyrical and expressive mark making. Often drawing from theatre and performance, her work harnesses the urgency and dynamism of life in movement, articulating on paper lives moving in sticky synchronicity. Capturing the immediacy of the medium, Nathalie’s drawings tread the careful line between chaos and composure. Alongside her own artwork, Nathalie runs a costumed life drawing class which combines her love of theatre, set design and costume to create an immersive artistic experience for others.
