Maz Murray (b. Basildon, 1995) is an artist working across film, writing, collage and installation. Murray uses satire, surrealism and melodrama to talk about queer and trans identity, class, and the complexities of public life. They subvert pop cultural forms such as music videos, TV documentaries, talk shows, social media content and cinema, using DIY techniques. They’re interested in the creation of artificial landscapes and the struggles that shape them.

In 2024, the artist presented Principal Boy at Focal Point Gallery, their first solo exhibition. Murray is currently working on a collaborative novel with Charlie Markbreiter, published by Montez Press. In 2023, the artist was selected as an awardee of the second edition of the LOEWE FOUNDATION / Studio Voltaire Award.

Bri Leung (b. Derby, 2003)  is an interdisciplinary artist whose practice interrogates the discomforting truths and conflicts in diasporic and gendered histories. Her practice explores reclamation across performance, writing, film, sculpture, dramaturgy and facilitation. She is influenced by art history, popular culture and interpersonal relationships. She has performed and exhibited at Pleasance Theatre, Hoxton Hall, Greatorex Street, Somerset House and The Yard Theatre.

Munesu Mukombe (b. Dagenham, 1994) is a London-based multidisciplinary artist working across writing, performance and moving image. Her autobiographical work creates intimate, vulnerable spaces for both herself and her audience, offering frameworks to explore abstract emotions around grief, racial oppression, interpersonal relationships and self-actualisation. In collaboration with artist Tawfik Naas, she coined the term “Environment Making” – a concept that situates art making in a space between world-building and lived reality.
