Alice Dyba
Alice Dyba studied at Tadeusz Kantors Complex of Fine Art Schools between 2006 and 2009, she graduated Fine Art at Bucks New University in 2012.
"I am working in the fields of figurative painting, drawing and printmaking. I'm inspired with everyday's struggles. My work glorifies winos, old ruins, overcrowded communities and blocks of flats. My work is expressive and diverse. I capture dark moments and try to make them beautiful in my own unique way. In my work I construct romantic notion of poverty crossed with my dreams , memories and reflections. My art is very autobiographical and I naturally fill sketchbooks with my ideas through the nights and days."

Fig
My aim is to create with passion and freedom, to tell stories from my life and the life of others. I express my ideas through sculpture, mainly figurative, exploring using a variety of media. Through the years I have enjoyed working with a variety of materials, from clay to life-casting, plus carving centuries old bog oak (fossilized wood).Working alone, my artwork is produced by hand and cannot be replicated by machine.
Each sculpture is individual and an edition of one.

Angela Smith
Angela Smith was born in London in 1950 and formally educated to A-level. She studied life drawing and modelling at adult education institutes and learnt carving techniques at Sir John Cass College. She now studies maths, as another source of shape imagery. She worked as a ceramics technician, then in finance and administrative posts, to support herself.Those are bland, conventionally recognisable facts. However, the dominant reality of her biography is self-reliant resistance and struggle to make it possible to produce her sculpture, against the abuse and rights violations that society inflicts, directly and indirectly, on an independent creative woman.

Aran Illingworth
I have always been fascinated by textiles. They provide a supremely versatile medium through which realistic images can be created easily, and in my own art I set out to use fabric instead of paint to create a portrait. I love the colour and the texture of textiles and the endless possibilities for manipulation which they offer. Portraiture in textiles allows the creation of images which are not only convincing but often intimate – and which can even be therapeutic for the maker.

Dina Delpozo
By an odd twist of fate, I was born between Europe and Asia in one of the Finno-Ugric provinces of Russia and not in, say, Buenos Aires. At the age of sixteen, I had to hitchhike across the Atlantic, rewarding the dolphins, turtles and snails, who took me along on their backs by painting portraits of them along the way. Meandering through many geographical and imaginary landscapes and taking on different shapes, I studied all sorts of things from statistics to literary theory, which left me with a Ph.D. in comparative literature from Yale and an interest in book illustration and the relationships between image and text. Drawing has always been my way to digest the rations of life, both desired and unwelcomed, with the vital enzymes coming from American abstract expressionism (Willem de Kooning and Philipp Guston), such multimedia artists as Lucas Samaras and Lee Bontecou, the Argentine modernist Xul Solar and the Cuban painter Wifredo Lam, those scoundrels Picasso and Chagall, as well as the Moscow underground art scene of the 1960s, especially my first teacher Boris Zhutovsky who challenged me to see dried fish as an art object and a bra as an obstacle. In childhood, I was afraid of clowns and old women, but I drew them obsessively in spite of this to make them less scary. Since then, I have learned to extract peace and comfort from the oddity of the creatures I feared by drawing them, understanding them and turning them into my own protean selves.
For Y Not? Dina will be exhibiting 'Drying Out'

And more often than not, poking fun at it.
‘La Revanche dans les Latrines’ is the first piece of his new series ‘Unconscious Commands and Judgements of Our Century’, a self-portrait series exploring the close relationship between culture and identity and several boundaries in between.

Hilary Barry
I am fascinated by the qualities of paint and the process of constructing a painting. I am exploring gender, from Freud and his surprisingly tenacious assertions regarding female sexuality; to assumptions regarding femininity, and a consideration of the assertion by feminist philosopher Julia Kristeva’s that women exist only symbolically,” The work plays with the physicality of the painting process, experimenting with creating, then obliterating, marks made on canvas. The image that remains becomes a ghost of its former self. a closer look raises a question-mark over the issue of equality, revealing the imagery of women as fractured and torn.
For Y Not? Hilary will be exhibiting her painting 'Not Sweet To Be Under'

"My work may be regarded as crude and explicit, but it is not intended to shock and repel, but to entice the audience into visual games of language and censorship. it tests the boundaries of etiquette and social constructs and what is allowed in the public domain and what should be kept private. my main focus is on the female body and how it can be exposed. my art asks at what point can the body become obscene or even offensive, whilst examining when the erotic becomes the pornographic and whether this can still be considered art."

For Y Not? Mervenil will be exhibting 'Digested'
Mia Wilkinson
Mia is a practicing London based artist who studied at UAL Wimbledon College of Arts gaining a BA Fine Art in Painting.
Her oil paintings are visceral explorations of certain sexualised female forms. The sensual indulgence with which she approaches the work is reflective of her subject; Female Body Builders and Squashers wrestle on the canvas in an orgy of drips and loaded excess paint. The humorous and light hearted intention with which she approaches her work is not lost, as complex issues of sex and gender are confronted by her brush. The work is unapologetic and intense, yet doesn’t become the expected angst ridden expressionism, rather comedic as the figures are increasingly morphing out of themselves and are hilariously exposed as bizarre avatars.
For Y Not? Mia will be exhibting 'Lapdance'
