Dian Joy (She/They)
@dian__joy
Dian Joy is a British-Nigerian transdisciplinary artist living and practicing in Central London, working
across various mediums, including video, installation, sculpture, and extended reality. While
conceptually rooted in the practices of Cultural Analysis, Joy remains deeply grounded in the
physicality to which the experience of the subaltern is bound. The processual within their work
engages the viewer in a way that gestures towards a sublime notion of liberation. Never indebted to
a darkening horizon, the artist faces the potential between personal experiences, political realities,
and community building as a way of offering alternative modes of inhabiting the social world.
Katie Grenville (She/Her)
@katie_grenville_studio
Katie Grenville is a naughty naughty visual artist living and making in Manchester, United Kingdom.
Poly for practices, a slag for skills, and a tart for trades - Katie works across many disciplines. Short
film, painting, performance, installation, drawing, signwriting, jewelry, clothing design, poetry,
woodwork, and digital. Through each of these media, Katie continuously explores themes of
kitschiness, campness, sexual relationships, extremes of emotions, dark comedy, and cult/pop
culture references, doing so with a distinctly queer and radical-feminist viewpoint.
Name of piece in the show: The Queer Space (A short film written by Katie Grenville, Illustrated by Danny Gregson,
narrated by Steffi Felton, edited by Eden Hawkes.)

@daystarssounds
Josh Clarke loves retro fantasy and video game soundtracks, both shaping the music he makes
today.
“Classic RPG soundtracks stick with you forever, and most game soundtracks don’t
need to go as hard as they do.”
He started making music on his phone in Garageband before buying a keyboard and moving to a
Mac. Many of his recent tracks are finished versions of forgotten remnants from the depths of his
phone. This year he hopes to release more music online and find more people to make fairy fountain
music with.
