Biographies
Jemima Brown
Receiving an MA in Fine Art from Chelsea College of Art Jemima Brown went on to win the 2011 Mark Tanner Sculpture Award. Early career achievements included a Fulbright Scholarship at UCLA in Los Angeles and the Cocheme Fellowship at University of the Arts, London. Her practice investigates the gender politics of domesticity via humour, social critique and formal sculptural decision making. Her manipulations of scale, surface and materials disrupt and highlight readings of primarily female cultural personae.
Relocating in 2014 from London to the East Kent coast brought fresh influences and perspectives which played out against the backdrop of heightened contemporary anxiety over the divisiveness of political and cultural debate. New work and ongoing bodies of work exhibited in the period from 2019 to 2022. ‘The Great Indoors’, was a major solo exhibition in 2019 at Canterbury Christ Church University’s Sidney Cooper Gallery in Canterbury, whilst ‘Peace Camp’ in Newbury, Berkshire, saw the culmination of a 10-year body of work celebrating the women of Greenham Common Peace Camp on the occasion of the 40th Anniversary of the establishment of the protest.

Zoe DeCaluwe
German artist Zoe De Caluwé's (they/them, b. 1997, Hamburg, Germany) practice encompasses a range of materials including ceramics and found objects. Small acts recur: collecting, arranging and repetitive labour. These gestures accumulate slowly, creating a sense of suspension. The boundary between refuge and confinement remains unstable and constantly negotiated. The familiar domestic space becomes a charged site where reassurance and discomfort occupy the same ground
