To The StudioJessie MakinsonJessie Makinson's work is darkly erotic and draws from influences including Ursula Le Guin, British folklore, stories of travelers, myths of pre-agricultural societies, 17th and 18th-century erotica, Flemish kitchen scenes, science fiction, and early Renaissance altarpieces. Makinson readdresses a patriarchal past from a female perspective. Plucking themes and narratives from historical precedent, she creates a bold new context for the motifs she selects. Vivid colors describe tense, erotic scenes in which women are dangerous active participants, not passive permission givers. Makinson’s characters practice rituals, they embrace, plot, and conspire. They hold sexual power and disrupt expectations, inhabiting a un...2022-07-061h 02

To The StudioBen EdmundsBen Edmunds is a London-based painter, whose deconstructionist approach takes him into sculpture, branding, useful objects and wearable equipment. He is best known for his large scale paintings that combine tropes of modernist abstraction with stylised accents of extreme sports. Drawing on his background in sailing, windsurfing and cycling, his work explores the transcendental possibilities of painting as well as these outdoor leisure pursuits, all the time questioning the assumed anti-utilitarianism of painting and asking “what can an artwork do?”. . . Underwritten into his dyed canvases, handmade carbon fibre components and short incidents of text...2022-04-191h 07

To The StudioTamu Nkiwane & John StruttonTamu Nkiwane is a London-based artist whose work examines his surrounding environment and considers the way value – as a fiscal and cultural consideration – is accumulated and transferred within it. . . John Strutton is an artist, musician and academic based in London. John’s work ranges across painting, drawing, installation, moving image, sound and performance. The work often uses the strategy of accrual to deal with a visual form of veneration and cultural reclamation. The resulting installations of paintings, drawings and objects become a kind of makeshift memorial, an ex–voto offering where nostalgia becomes a form o...2022-01-272h 05

Karolina Albricht thinks of painting as an opening, a stretching beyond dimensionality and optical perception. Its process is driven by curiosity, a desire to see what is possible by negotiating new configurations of form, colour and surface. It is her attempt to generate an active space, an environment which can be perceived and responded to through...2021-11-241h 24

To The StudioMark Selby & Jordan BasemanMark Selby’s practice mainly revolves around sculpture, installation and film, using an engineering approach to materials, computation and mechanics in order to explore how images, objects and human agency are affected by technological rationality. Creating and collaborating with machines to develop often complex and elongated processes of making, his work asks questions of access to information from both their aesthetics and function; asking what the potential and limits of programming, rules and instructions can offer. . . Jordan Baseman’s work is best described as a synthesis of reportage, portraiture, documentary, creative non-fiction, narrative prac...2020-10-201h 43

To The StudioGala BellGala is a London based multidisciplinary artist.

To The StudioBen JamieWelcome to Episode 10 of To The Studio. This weeks guest is Ben Jamie.. . . Ben Jamie’s oil paintings attempt to explore the boundaries between the incongruous and the sentimental, turning the ordinary into the unfamiliar. . . Inspiration comes from many sources, be it studio detritus, fly tipping, trans humanism, conspiracy theories or fast food, and although based somewhere in reality, the paintings are fairly undisturbed by the real world. The paintings depict notional, metamorphic spaces containing their own logic, including shapes that have associations; something in a state of metamorphosis; something responding to an external force or inherent forms discovered in so...2019-12-041h 00

To The StudioHannah RowanWelcome to Episode 9 of To The Studio. This weeks guest is Hannah Rowan . .

To The StudioFrancesca BlomfieldWelcome to Episode 7 of To The Studio. This weeks guest is Francesca Blomfield. . . The atmosphere of night creates the condition from which Francesca synthesises drawing, painting and writing. This temporality of night allows for multiplicity of space that has potential for different transgressions, contained rubbing of different varieties; in delirium, in fatigue, physically moving through darkness in new sensory spaces, in the conjuring of what wants to be forgotten or what can only be forgotten led by a desire to extend new possibilities and actions. Transformation enacts descent into the subconscious, into the repressed, concerned with areas of extremity to...2019-11-131h 08

Since graduating from the Royal College of Art in 2017, Pettitt has elaborated his painting within a register of allusive and speculative abstraction.
