An artist and film maker, Tierney’s practice is based on experiences and relationship to locations which have an emotional resonance in terms of personal and collective memory; of territories and cultural landmarks: funfairs in England, airports, aeroplanes, and roller coasters in America. Prints, films, paints and pencils are all used as drawing media to explore her interest in the ways in which these spaces are shaped and reshaped by mankind and the transformations they undergo with the passage of time.
She studied at the Royal College of Art and in 2005 and 2006 received Arts Council Grants for Individuals Awards. |

In Kaccoufa’s work Genetic Manipulation, hubristic recklessness, and toys of the future are structured within a ‘post-utopian’ moment. The Cyber Flora sculptures comprising three-dimensional steel wire flowers resemble fantastical molecular models. The Bear sculptures with Griffith wings and octopus legs are genetically modified creatures of polyester resin and aluminum foil rather than cuddly teddies. Bringing together undifferentiated- technical practice, poetic intuition and the grotesque, his works critically engage with the speculative idealism of twentieth century utopianism.
He lives and works in London and studied at the Royal Academy Schools, and Central St Martins. |

My painting explores the relationship between the geometry of particular architectural spaces and the subjective experience of these structures. In particular I am interested in a form of perceptual reading and a kind of visual syntax through which to construct narratives of place. During a residency in Rome (2002) I undertook research into the buildings of the Modernist architect Mario Ridolfi which addressed certain paradoxes in his uses of rational form.
