'Military Intelligence' - digital image
by Skot Jenkin
"A reaction to the last decade of bollocks,
lies and death we have been force-fed by
aggressive imperial governments and
their media partners."
'Sugar and Spice and All Things Nice'
by Naomi Fisher
"It's a portrait of two refugee girls. I'm
exploring the idea of desensitisation of a
personal story and the effects of politics on
the journeys of individuals."
'I Drive Dodgem Cars'
"This piece is about me not driving yet
(being over 30), and the pride I feel
having a lighter ecological footprint so far."
'Displacement'
"A senseless slaughter took place on
the riverbank. The indigenous people who
resided there were shot for sport.
This deeply affected and disgusted me."
'Chairperson'
by John Smith
"'Chairperson' is a playfully satirical
swipe at bureaucracy and the stereotypical
bureaucrat who is of course a tortured,
egotistical maniac."
'untitled'
"This sculpture
is about violence
and humiliation,
and the suffering
experienced by
victims of violence."
