James Robert Morrison is a Scottish queer artist with an MA in Fine Art from Central Saint Martins. After working in the cultural sector for 17 years, he resumed his art practice in 2019. From drawings on cigarette papers to paintings and collages embellished with embroidery, he approaches his use of media in a playful and open way, creating work that normalises non-heteronormative identities and begins to address the lack of positive representation and visibility that he, and many members of the queer community, didn’t encounter during their formative years.

When I paint, it is memory, romance and realism that inspire and drive me. I explore the idea of queer love, and queer life, with focus on my lived experiences.
I draw from my memories to create paintings that I hope convey great emotion. My goal is to make art that feels like a point in time, so that the viewer knows it was once a moving memory, and not just a painting of a figure, or a still life.

Can fun, kickass rock’n’roll and activism go together?! Hell yeah! The Lürxx play “Nature Warrior Glam Punk”, combining the energy and attitude of glam punk with the awareness and activism of protest songs. Their goal is to “give our listeners the positive energy they need to fight for a better future - and to make them smile and bang their heads in the process!“ The band are fiercely feminist and list anarchy and radical optimism as two philosophies they live by.

I work as an illustrator primarily painting in Photoshop, my childhood involved a take away upbringing meaning I was surrounded by food and developed a deep love for it from a young age. When I’m not painting illustrations of food, I draw influence from my upbringing and paint LGBT+ narratives hoping to tell stories that show same sex couples enjoying everyday life especially from East Asian countries as that was something that I didn’t see much in my younger years.

She/TheyI like to describe my work as Political Whimsy. How I paint is expressionist, it’s a representation of how I feel about the subject. But there’s usually something deeper too, a message I want to convey.

I’m a queer Polish-Irish composer exploring identity, belonging, and otherness, shaped by growing up in a small Polish community in Northern Ireland. My work blends Irish and Polish folk with contemporary theatre and classical forms, often using traditional instruments and modal colour. I’m drawn to working-class queer stories set in intimate, everyday, vulnerable spaces like pubs, village halls, childhood bedrooms; where queerness meets the grit of real life: rent, migration, and digital-age connection.

I’m a London-based collage artist working with homoerotic, pre-internet magazines as well as books, postcards, wallpaper, and self-prepared papers. I’m intrigued by the analogy between constructing collages with fragments from diverse sources and the formation of identity and culture. I’m drawn to unexpected points of connection - where a colour, pattern or form links fragments together and I’m fascinated by the oscillating shift between certainty and unease that collage can provoke.

My art is rooted in my Caribbean heritage and heavily inspired by growing up black and queer in Manchester. I fuse poetry, music and film to tell stories often overlooked. As a multifaceted artist I embrace change and risk-taking in my work. I am passionate about celebrating diversity and personal truth, threading lived experience into every frame, lyric, and line.

As RAINGIRL, I create music rooted in memory, emotion, and atmosphere.
My Protector is the debut single from RAINGIRL — a moving, instrumental tribute to her older sister. Blending ambient textures, expressive piano, and delicate violin, the track creates a tender soundscape that speaks to love, safety, and childhood memories.

George Dyer is a London based artist who uses collage as a vehicle to exploring the intersection of masculinity, sexuality and placement. His practice considers the constraints imposed upon black and brown men, but also recognises and celebrates the potential, achievement and worth of this often misrepresented ethnic group. He draws reference from memory and personal experiences, but also from the systems and attitudes (both historic and current) that play into the reductive process of othering.

I am a writer who loves to collage to explore growing up queer in an isolated place in the 80s and 90s. My love of pop culture visually expresses the hope and joy I felt as a queer boy avoiding the bullies in the playground.
