	AroFish	He goes to Beirut after the bombing and paints kite runners on the ruins and when in London he likes to spray stray cats and bag ladies because he saw the real scene in Spain many years ago while road tripping
	Aya Fukami	I use ceramic to make objects, which then are left to stand balancing. When these objects are finished, start to function as artworks or cease to exist it is quite often unknown; because of the fragility of those objects, (the material in combination with their posture) it is unknown how long they will last. The re-arrangement of the elements and the documentation of the work in different configurations are inherent in my practice, so the work is not ‘fixed’ and stays open.
	Barbara Walker	Barbara Walker graduated in fine art from the University of Central England in 1996. She has undertaken a number of solo projects including: Louder than Words , Unit2 London and Midlands Art Centre,2007; Testimony, Queen’s Hall, Northumberland, 2005; Private Face, EMACA, Nottingham, 2002, this exhibition also toured to Midlands Arts Centre, Birmingham and 198 Gallery, London.

Walker has also been the recipient of a number of funding and research awards
	Baron Gilvan	The Baron Gilvan is best known through his bawdy concert hall performances with Badstock Productions and the Karaoke Circus. He plays comedic trombone and sings barotone for the songwriting duo of Foster& Gilvan. He was born in Britain but spent the first part of his childhood in Germany with his famous opera singer father. His paintings explore the dynamics of the imagination and often inform his ludicrous and endearing stage persona. He studied at Central St.Martins and Crakow Academy and has designed the BBC proms logo and the wallpaper for the current Big Brother series. In 1998 he won the Royal Overseas league bursary and travelled to India and Nepal.
	Beejoir	Painting, printmaking, sculpture, photography and stencils are his mediums. Contrasting visual elements and saturated colours make his work personal and accessible, eye catching. One step beyond and the familiar, comfortable frame disappears leaving yourself mumbling and scratching your head, immersed in considerations regarding the ultraviolent nature of the shiny happy people, the unsustainable way of living we are buried in and a huge feeling of guilt. The work goes straight to the point, ruthless. This is honest, good POP art!

	Bianca Brunner	Bianca Brunner's enigmatically simple photographic compositions reflect on the power of sudden, momentary absorption to arrest and change our experience of daily life - characters and sets embodying a hypnotic aesthetic akin to that which may be found in, say, a painting of a mostly empty interior by Wilhelm Hammershoi, or in the subversive sense of memory and possession in a surrealist film. The young Swiss photographer's contemplative images of individuals looking as anonymous and abandoned as the interior and exterior environments in which they are framed are remarkable for their uncanny, almost mystically spartan demeanour.
