In a deconstruction of their disjointed rea lities vs. online identities\, and the artists make physical responses to not only their own Instagram accounts\, but also the ever-evolving online scene. The show aims to enforce both self-reflection\, and a wider context ual understanding of the culture we are immersed in.\n\nPippa Eason\n\nPip pa Eason (b.1993)\, is currently a Leeds based artist\, and a member of se rf\, an artist run studio/project space. She also studied for both her BA and MA in Leeds. Recent exhibitions have included Penny Idol$: Whitecloth Gallery (Leeds) De-CON- Struction: Duke Street Studios\, (Liverpool)\, TPX X MUESLI for Threshold Festival (Liverpool)\, The Vitrines: Pippa Eason c urated by William Clarke at STCFTHOTS (Leeds)\, isthisit? AFK\, (London)\, An Evening with isthisit? (Suffolk)\, and the collaboration with designer Nick Booton for FILLA\, at Lamberts Yard Leeds.\n\nStatements:\n\nPippa E ason’s work makes observations of the abstraction/perception of nature\, the tangible\, the everyday\, and considers it within the accelerating ar t world. They act as props for the near fictional imagery displayed often through a screen\, they come to life\, crumbling from the cocoon of realit y\, into the pixel generated sub-human culture. The use of symbols for exa mple: dollar signs\, cacti\, chains\, written word\, and so on articulate the separation of art in life\, against art on screen. These multi layered objects\, or digital works serve as a signifier for the aesthetics of con temporary commerce\, and viewing. Those aesthetics are then translated int o the cyber world\, reiterating itself over andover again. Pippa’s work is often installed intimately into a space\, making the space intrinsic to much of her practice.\n\nwww.pippaeason.com\n\nEllie Hoskins is an artist living and studying in Liverpool. Rooted primarily in existential concern s\, her practice explores contemporary selfhood and responds to feelings o f absurdity\, anxiety\, and alienation. Concerned with the current politic al climate\, Ellie’s work raises questions about the future of humanity\ , and indeed humanism\, in a post-digital\, post-truth\, and post-human wo rld. What is a contemporary ‘self’? How do we find self-fulfilment in a time of complete uncertainty? How is authenticity achieved under the con ditions of forced hybridity (multiple identities online\, etc.)? How relev ant are my feelings? How relevant are my fears?
