Unknown Friends brings together twelve artists and members of the Working Class Creatives Database for a special exhibition opening 21 April 2023 on the First Floor of 32-38 Saffron Hill, Farringdon, EC1N 8FH, supported by Hypha Studios.

This exhibition brings together work from a group of artists spanning a multitude of disciplines including, but not limited to, painting, sculpture, prose, and photography. Unknown Friends will explore threads of many narratives interwoven in a labour of love formed from landscapes and materials, observations and people. Each is bound by the same eventual disintegration, reincarnation, and regeneration through time and loss through either the organic or the digital. 

Throughout, there is a question of permanence, change, and identity. All are questioned through the layering of textures, materials, or processes, and through a prism of time and loss. The exhibition aims not to resolve these questions, but instead reflect on them in the space between the pieces, allowing conversation and discussion to flourish. 

Unknown Friends will be open Friday – Monday 10am until 6pm from 22 April until 21 May 2023, with additional days open by appointment.
