“Sky Siouki and Harriet Popham each create imaginative scenes that celebrate animals and architecture using paint and ink. Both of their work is fuelled by their inspiration from the places they depict but also by their love of the creative process itself. When painting and drawing, or carving and printing, Sky and Harriet are each immersed within their very own happy place.”

“An actor from South America newly arrived in London very quickly realises he’ll mostly be hired to play exotic characters – gigolo, thug, pool cleaner with comedy accent – so he adapts. He moves, speaks and writes like a stereotypical Latinx person should. But as he learns to play the game with increasing success, he starts to question how far he himself is becoming complicit in perpetuating the mythic nature of these stock characters and how much he is losing touch with his own identity.”
