SPOTLIGHT

Ed Saye’s new solo exhibition, Once Emerged from the Grey of Night, presents a reimagined, autobiographical painting cycle – surreal, luminous scenes rendered in saturated colour and a sense of altered ritual.

We’ve shown Orlanda Broom’s work since just after her graduation and witnessed her develop a vivid, unmistakable language of imagined ecosystems and transformation. Orlanda Broom in her studio, several years ago – a glimpse into the origins of a practice we’ve followed since its earliest days. Her vision has deepened steadily, and she remains one […]

Zuzanna Salamon’s charcoal drawings keep unfolding across major international stages. This year she’s exhibited at the Royal Society of British Artists Annual Exhibition in London for the fifth consecutive year, and now at Figurativas 2025at the MEAM Museum in Barcelona, where she’s also been awarded the Florence Academy of Art scholarship. We currently have a […]

I’ve been thinking about Pluto: myth, archetype, planet, god, the slow-moving force that strips away illusions and leaves only what stands. Whatever you think about astrology, Pluto as a planet is pretty extraordinary. Discovered only in 1930, it’s 3.7 billion miles away – and yet somehow we’ve got photographs (well, NASA do). When they sent the New […]

Tom Speedy graduated from Duncan of Jordanstone (DJCAD), University of Dundee this year (2025). He was nominated by his tutor for our Emerging Art Prize and awarded the prestigious RSA John Kinross Scholarship. He has already held two solo exhibitions and been selected for RSA New Contemporaries in Edinburgh (2026). His painting Adrift was chosen to promote […]

Last night Jan Valik’s solo show opened in Vienna: The Calling. Light breaking through mysterious paintscapes.

Congratulations Emerging Art Prize nominee, Sculpture and Environmental Glasgow School of Art graduate Anna Lewis, who has been awarded the 2025 Newbery Medal – the GSA’s highest undergraduate honour. Anna’s work delicately explores memory, materiality, and the ephemeral through sculpture, textiles, sound, and text. “Anna creates extraordinary objects that are beautifully and precisely crafted,” said […]

Ruth Bateman’s paintings are a rare encounter – Her mark-making resonates below language. You can almost feel the air shift: the shimmer of heat, the sound of crickets in the grass, stars flickering above a line of foliage. Scintillation, saturation, sensation. She has been shortlisted for both the 2024 Contemporary British Painting Prize and Sky […]

Since his sold-out MA degree show in 2021, Andrew Szczech has continued to gain serious attention. Most recently, his work was selected by a London curator associated with Sarabande, the ICA, and Forbes 30 Under 30 – a sign of growing recognition within the contemporary art world. Andrew’s recent paintings draw on fragments of late-Victorian wallpaper from […]

Two artists, one undercurrent: the early pulse of recognition. Shared origin (RCA), different registers, but the same sense of forward motion. There are rumblings – sales, attention, the kind of interest that builds quietly. Their work is being noticed. Picked up, in some cases, by other artists – and that always says something – that […]
