Eva Yates is a neo-surrealist oil painter whose warping of imagery counters her demons. She descends to a distorted world of nymphs and bright playful pallets to reveal the contrasting poles of her subconscious. Threats move in from the edges, often as optical illusions, as she stretches reality. Her work opens space for the imagination to grow. Using her friends as her muse, she immortalises the iconic and reinvigorates the nostalgic.⁠

Lake Retba or ‘Lac Rose’ is a lake north East of Dakar, Senegal known for its pink hue caused by the presence of algae and more importantly to the community that lives from it, its high salt content. In 2016, photographer Ilyes Griyeb captured the lives of this community that lives off of the lake in a beautiful sensitivity. ⁠
⁠
Much of Ilyes's work has focused on his family’s home country of Morocco, where he shoots with similar emotiveness. He was brought to Senegal on commission, when it fell through he decided to photograph the lake's residents, driven to capture their lives contrasted with the lake from which they live.⁠

On October 4th 1936 the people of East London halted a march of fascists. The planned route was through an impoverished area with a high area of Jewish residents was seen as a direct provocation, and as the government of the day refused requests to ban the march, an estimated 250,000 East Londoners took to the streets to block their way. ⁠
⁠
The same slogan used by the Republicans of the Spanish civil war was called out at the barricades, ‘They Shall not Pass’. Their actions ensured that the Blackshirts had to turn back and history was made, with the East End playing a crucial role in the defeat of British fascism.⁠
