2022 - Issue 13
Showcasing artists and works that caught my attention.
Alice Black (@AliceBlackGallery) has moved to Fitzrovia and put on a crackin’ housewarming show featuring highly exquisite samples from across her roster.
‘Seven’ until 15 May

Paradise Row (@ParadiseRowProjects) is a one-year, not-for-profit project and the current exhibition curated by Mazzy-Mae Green (@MazzyMaeGreen) impressively fits 22 works within the small space without feeling (too) overwhelming.
‘City Entwined - Part I’ until 09 April

Group shows usually have very loose themes. This show has chosen something specific, and you may be pleasantly shocked to learn it wasn’t an April Fool’s: Suffragette Jujitsu.
44 GRS Gallery is accessed from inside a cafe opposite the British Museum.
‘The Comrades They Were Brave’ until 10 Apr

Artists Studio Company (ASC) (@ASC_studios) is a charity that provides affordable workspaces to artists and makers. Their South London Gallery (@ASCGallery) is currently showcasing a mix of emerging and established artists. It’s absolutely worth a visit.
‘Patternicity’ until 23 Apr

The latest show at Korean Cultural Centre UK (@KCCUK_exhibition) features 3 artists who explore space and place. I was particularly fascinated by the way Seungwon Jung (@jung.seung.won) examines geological layering through a blend of photography, digital and textile. (Images 9-10)
‘Drifting Terrain’ until 21 May
