Tony Cragg is celebrated for his innovative approach to materials and form and draws inspiration from the natural world, human anatomy, and scientific phenomena to create captivating and thought-provoking artworks. His diverse body of work encompasses sculptures crafted from a wide range of materials including bronze, wood, glass, and plastic, often exploring themes of movement, transformation, and the relationship between organic and man-made structures. Cragg’s fascination with the possibilities of sculpture as a medium for exploring complex concepts is evident in his use of abstract forms and intricate compositions that challenge viewers to reconsider their perceptions of space and materiality. Through his experimentation with shape, texture, and scale, Cragg invites audiences to engage with his sculptures on both a visceral and intellectual level, forging connections between the natural and the artificial, the familiar and the unfamiliar.

Nicola Turner (@nicolaturner.art) with a background in set and costume design spanning over two decades, investigates the dissolution of boundaries and the interconnection of life and death, human and non-human, in her multidisciplinary artistic practice. Turner’s work combines found objects imbued with traces of memory, shapes of living forms, and materials from organic ‘dead’ matter such as horsehair, evoking a sense of history and memory. Through her exploration of materials and their inherent energy forces, including the visceral aversion and attraction provoked by ‘dead’ matter, Turner’s pieces resonate with the notion of abjection and an acute awareness of melancholy and death, while simultaneously affirming life’s forces. Drawing on her own experiences of loss and medical intrusions, Turner’s work challenges individuality and fosters awareness of the wider interconnected energies of which we are all part, inviting viewers to contemplate the liminal states and continuous exchanges across ecosystems.
