Anna Johanna Blom is a Swedish artist who graduated this year
from the Royal College of Art. Her video performance is
concerned with female sexual identity, the body, and female
sexuality. Her work is erotic but confrontational. By casting
herself as subject Blom empowers herself and projects emotional
components of her sexuality onto us, examining eroticism,
desire, dependence, violence, release, control and the personal
as universal.
Adrian Di Duca makes large scale
works of acrylic or inkjet prints on canvas. They are coded,
outsized re-presentations of images found on sex cards or in
pornographic magazines. Each piece consists of a large number of
tiny monochromatic canvases bound together, creating a
sculptural, flexible surface reminiscent of pixelated images or
mosaics. The image within is both shaped and disrupted by this
pixilation, creating a direct interplay between form and the
formless.
David McKeran has been collecting prostitute's calling cards for
a number of years. Over this period he has identified a variety
of styles in which they are presented.
