Curated Exhibitions / Open Calls
Loose Ends focuses on work that remains unresolved, shaped by both intention and condition.
Unfinished states are not treated as absence or failure, but as the way making often truly happens.
Rather than prioritising resolution, the exhibition is interested in practices formed through negotiation, adjustment, interruption, and revision. What is shown may be partial, provisional, or fragmentary, reflecting the realities within which ideas are developed.
We welcome works across fine art, sculpture, perforce, moving image. sound, architecture, design, fashion and other relevant mediums, particularly those that move between disciplines or resist clear categorisation.
This may include:
• unfinished or ongoing works
• realised works halted before completion
• material experiments and test pieces
• sketches, drafts, and working drawings
• fragments, samples, and partial constructions
• proposals or ideas that remain unrealised
Visible traces of making, construction lines, edits, annotations, revisions, and corrections — are not secondary, but integral to the work.

Communicating Culture, Identity and Emotion
Moving in Space, Place and Threshold.
Soft Ground: Show One brings together contemporary artists whose practices probe the unstable conditions of culture, identity, and emotion within an increasingly hybrid physical–digital landscape. Their works examine how language structures perception, how technological interfaces recalibrate intimacy, and how spatial experience unfolds across both material and virtual terrains. In foregrounding thresholds, between bodies, screens, and environments, the exhibition echoes Bachelard’s claim that “space that has been seized upon by the imagination cannot remain indifferent space.” Each work becomes an active site of inquiry, mapping fluid modes of belonging and proposing new conceptual frameworks for navigating the porous realities of contemporary life.

Soft Ground Show 2
Reflecting Memory and Time
Grounding in Nature and Environment
Soft Ground: Show Two brings together contemporary artists whose practices probe the interwoven terrains of landscapes and nature, along with memory and time. Their works examine how environments, cities, and imagined terrains, illuminate ecological rhythms and the entanglements of human and nonhuman life. While also exploring the sedimentation of experience, revealing how memory, duration, and material traces shape perception and presence. In tracing these layers, the exhibition echoes James Elkins’ insight that “Art does not merely depict; it suspends time and allows the viewer to inhabit multiple durations simultaneously.” Each work becomes an active site of inquiry, mapping fluid modes of ecological and temporal engagement and inviting reflection on how we inhabit and imagine the worlds around and within us.

XinYue
XinYue Ma is a London-based artist working across sculpture, installation, and interdisciplinary materials. With a background in stage design, she treats space as “an intimate immensity,” where form, movement, and material converge. Her installations combine sculpture, sound, and moving image to blur the boundaries between perception and embodiment.
Alexander
Alexander Collinson is a London-based audiovisual artist whose work explores the intersection of sound, narrative, and spatial design. Blending sound design with visual storytelling, he investigates how sensory environments shape emotion and memory. He holds an MA in Narrative Environments from Central Saint Martins and a BA in Sound Design. His projects include immersive works for museums and galleries across Europe, such as Memoirs of the Blitz and the Museum of the Occupation of Latvia.
