What's On at The Hoxton?

It’s hard not to be drawn into East London based artist Alice Palmer’s colourful world that fuses fashion, textiles and geometric shapes. Before becoming an artist, Alice had a knitwear company, showing collections in London, Paris, Tokyo and New York. Alice says “I love working with colour, line and texture. My work is always inspired by what is happening in the world or in my life at the time and recently I have been dreaming about travelling and exploring colour around the world.” Check out her textured installations at The Hoxton Shoreditch.

Born in Peckham, of Jamaican and Scottish heritage, artist Aaron Bevan-Bailey had to negotiate ever-changing boundaries of race, environment, identity and anonymity whilst growing up. Aaron’s latest project involved him traveling to Kenya, to live with and create portraits of the indigenous nomadic tribesman of the Samburu Masai and is now exhibited at The Hoxton, Holborn.

Dive head first into summer with Gavin Dobson’s Hockney-esque poolscapes, ice lolly screen prints and colour-soaked celebrations of London’s queer life. Now based in East London, after moving from the North East in the ’90s, Gavin’s painting explores homosexuality and the various subcultures that are still prevalent.
