In her practice Strindberg gives form to visual anarchy, transforming found visual material into something more alive and challenging. Medical illustrations of the brain are transformed into large detailed paintings of menacing beauty. Newspaper images of war are subverted by transforming them into scenes from a comic-book misadventure inhabited by teddy-bear like soldiers in lurid neon glows. She lives and works in London and studied at the Royal College of Art. She was artist in residence at the National Gallery in 1988; won the Abbey Scholarship at the British School, Rome, 1996; won the Jerwood Prize for Painting, 1998; and participated in the Sharjah International Biennale 2003 |

Miho Sato
is something of a militant magpie for the information age. Borrowing at will from a variety of printed source matter, Sato liberates the images she chooses of the artificial facets that bind them to time, place and sentiment and gives them back to us devoid of detail. But there is a catch. In choosing to re-present familiar subjects, Sato forces us to confront just how complicit we are within the endless cycle of data reproduction. Rifling through other people's histories, she is free to shine a light under the murkier aspects of contemporary image making.

Mindy Lee uses a repeated expulsion of paint,fusing layers together into a monstrous hybrid. These forms lure the viewer in through delicate detail.As the surface is infected, disgust and seduction are intertwined through a revelling in squeamishness. Lee lives and works in London. MA Royal College of Art 2002-4. Selected exhibitions:2007 ‘Gyre and Gimble’ Blyth Gallery, London. 2006/7 ‘Salon Connexions’ Contemporary Art Projects, London. |

I work in a process of laying down paint and manipulating it, trying to find a point where the paint becomes pure image yet simultaneously folding back into matter. I am interested in this movement and how it leads not only to a deformation of the image but also of deformation of understanding. Potentially, opening up a space for a different understanding.
