'Translucent Intersections’ is a collaborative project culminating in an expansive exhibition presenting the work of the eight artists in the project.
These artists work in excitingly variable ways using a range of media; film, installation, photography, painting, sculpture and performance. An inquisitive curatorial lens focuses at the intersections of the works by these eight artists.

His 3D PLA prints, replicas of other nature, are located into a space that sits on a digital pathway towards the metaverse.
Natural Watermilfoil in Reformed Plastic Cup, 2025
These 3D printed sculptures begin as scans which take place 'now', scans of other nature which are assembled, along with replicas of 'now' technology, into a combined sculpture looking to the future, to ‘what this combination of technology and nature could become’.
In Miraj Ahmed’s installations, the vulnerability and precariousness of the pictorial content enters into a dialogue with the absurd methods of support they are given in found locations.
The embedded processes within the works allude to bodies and natural forces resistant to them opening them up to comical, benevolent or even destructive exchanges.

Exhibited at The Apartment & project Divfuse, London and St Ives September Festival
Joanna Penso's meandering sonic journey through the waterways of the body, 'The River in You' explores the human relationship with water in both the internal and the external.
Careering through orifices, tubes and organs this ambient soundscape celebrates the journey water takes into and out of the body, transforming audio recordings taken with a stethoscope microphone into a meditative experience for the listener/viewer.
Héloïse Bergman’s chlorophyll leaf prints ‘Tangata Whenua’ [People of the Land] also deal with identity and community
capturing portraits of people closely linked to a geographical area and re-producing them on a material with its own lifespan.
Alberto Romano delicately deals with topics of immigration and stereotypes with a colourful portrait survey of the Palermitan community in London.
Immigrant stereotypes are juxtaposed within his project 'EX-PA' in C-type prints.
Matt Stock takes a surgical approach in documenting the travelling British Art Show 9 across the country, dissecting the politics of touring shows,
looking at the works when re-presented in different cities and venues and ultimately re-presented as a film.
Anta Germane captures light painting with low exposure photography and stop motion animation in her body of work titled 'Blue Flux'. She re-presents this process in 3 ways: giclée prints, a moment in time given permanence in a still image, stop motion animation presenting a moment in time but in an animated series giving an illusion of movement.
Finally, considering the organic/constructed world vs the digital by feeding these images into an AI algorithm & presenting the work generated.
Robyn Litchfield's oil paintings on linen depict a natural, wild landscape in sepia tones, nostalgic for a time when ecological destruction had not yet ravaged the New Zealand landscape.
Litchfield's work presents itself as a longing for a home that no longer exists, an outsider's dream.
