This week's Art UK theme is Reflections. Currently on display as part of our Mirrors: Reflecting on Identity exhibition, this piece by South London artist Kirsty Latoya, known as KirzArt , explores identity and self-presentation in the age of social media.

Created digitally on an iPad, the work highlights the ways we curate versions of ourselves online - choosing what to share, how we are seen, and which parts of our selves we reflect back to the world.

Painting a Smile, 2019

This week's Art UK celebrates International Dog Day! This undated photograph of a chihuahua peeking out from a richly decorated garment is imbued with humour. Framed by chains, bells, and jewellery, the dog looks toward the camera with a playful expression.

Stern discovered his passion for photography at around six years old. At 19, he joined the BBC as a cameraman and went on to work on the influential Man Alive documentaries.

Alongside his film work, he produced still photographs in countries including Sri Lanka, Afghanistan, and North America, developing a distinctive documentary style.

This work is currently available to see as part of our Collections Display .

✨ A relaxed, hands-on creative experience designed to support wellbeing and encourage personal expression.

Mondays in September: 7th, 14th and 21st | 1:00PM – 3:00PM
