Gina Birch - In My Fucking Room
The anguished emotions of Punk are alive and well in these paintings by rocker Gina Birch.
Hallyu! The Korean Wave
There’s a lot to like, but your overall enjoyment might come down to how much you already know about current Korean culture.
Cristian Avram - Lapse
The voyeuristic framing of these paintings made me look a lot longer than I had intended to.

An audio installation set within an architectural Art Deco classic. Find out what I thought about both.
Danica Lundy - Stop Bath
These works are incredibly hard to comprehend even after you get the gist.
David Shearing - The Rising Sun
Eavesdrop on East Londoners in this pop-up audio installation located in Romford Market, and available online.

These look like fuzzy carpet covered in creamy cake batter, and they make me feel as if I’ve just licked the spoon!
