Attuning to Ecologies of Time

The conclusion of Proposition’s recent artist residency brought together artists, researchers and audiences for an inspiring workshop, artist talks and lively discussion.

Mariia Korneeva shared her ideas around crib time - how disabled people experience time differently - and the influence of microseasons on her practice. Julian Udine reflected on marine biodiversity, drawing on extensive scuba diving and observations of synthetic contamination altering marine life, leading to her concept of chimeric ecologies. Jane Scobie explored deep listening to urban dawn choruses and the liminal, ‘claggy denes’ that exist between land and sea, bringing along her sculpture The Listener.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for a thought-provoking day of exchange and conversation.

In collaboration with Central Saint Martins, UAL MA Art and Science.

We are pleased to present FROM THE LAND, a new exhibition developed through our partnership with the Architectural Association, based at Bedford Square, London, and Hooke Park, Dorset.

Bringing together works that examine the relationship between architecture and the living world, the exhibition approaches architecture as a moment within a broader material flow: one that begins in the landscapes where resources are sourced, passes through the built environment, and ultimately returns to the land.

The projects gathered here aim to recalibrate architecture’s relationship with land, matter and climate. Together, they imagine futures in which architecture actively supports the diversity of species, landscapes and communities, attending to the ecological, social and political systems that sustain life rather than serving only the logics of extraction and development.

Representing emerging approaches to material and land use within one of the world’s most resource-intensive industries, these experimental works offer a glimpse of where a new generation is taking the profession.

Co-curated with architect, designer and educator Inigo Minns.

We’re excited to announce the first artists of Proposition Studio’s new Biodiversity Fingerprint Residency 🌱 with our first residency partner Central Saint Martins, UAL.

The residency is a new platform connecting emerging artists from leading art and design universities with experimental studio infrastructure — supporting cross-disciplinary work at the intersection of art, science, materials, architecture, and biodiverse farming.

The central questions we ask are: what are the relationships with non-human living things which make us who we are? How can the Anthropocene become an age of ecological abundance?

Our inaugural residents are graduates of the MA Art and Science programme at University of the Arts London, currently in residence at Bethnal Green Studios (March – end of May 2026):

Proposition is delighted to partner with Matrix’s Environment Team in celebration of Earth Day. Their evening showcase, Art Inspired by the Environment, brings together members of the legal community and artists whose work is shaped by the natural world.

Matrix will be featuring the works of three artists from Proposition Studios currently showing in our exhibition Keystone Species, Dr. Jennifer Crouch, Lisa Gornick and tyroneisaacstuart.

🌍

All images by are from Proposition’s current exhibition Keystone Species.

📷 I: .crouch is an art-science practitioner working across sculpture, textiles, installation and image-making. Informed by a background in physics, medical illustration and textiles, their transdisciplinary practice uses speculative world-building to explore embodied knowledge across scales.

📷 II & III: is a filmmaker, performer and artist known for live drawing shows—hybrid performances combining real-time cinema, storytelling and spontaneous exhibition. Drawing in front of audiences, she narrates personal and political histories through DIY visuals.

📷 IV & V: is a London-based interdisciplinary artist working across sound, movement, text and installation. His practice moves between solo and collaborative modes, engaging diasporic experience, intergenerational rupture and systems of movement.

Wakelyns Agroforestry is an oasis in a desert of conventional industrial agriculture. For 30 years it has been a beacon of hope showing how human beings can increase biodiversity and support ecological resilience in the process of producing delicious food, energy, fibres and building materials.

Created by the world renowned plant pathologist, plant breeder and pioneer of agroforestry Prof. Martin Wolfe, Wakelyns has led the way for the adoption of the integration of trees, crops and animals in farming systems. The biodiverse farming at Wakelyns has brought species back to Suffolk which haven’t been seen in generations, such as nesting turtle doves.

It has informed UK and EU government policy and inspired researchers, academics, farmers, bakers and plant breeders from across the world. BBC Good Food Award winners Hodmedods (2017) and Small Food Bakery (2018) sprung from the work at Wakelyns.

Prof. Wolfe was a founding trustee of Proposition and always emphasised the importance of visiting Wakelyns in person. Come and join us to see for yourselves the magic of how a farming system can make human beings a Keystone Species.

CURRENT EXHIBITION 🌱

KEYSTONE SPECIES brings together thirteen artists based in Proposition’s studios whose work engages with the idea of keystone species: organisms whose presence has a disproportionate influence on the abundance of life in their ecological region.

When these species disappear, entire systems can collapse; when they are present, the world around them flourishes.

The exhibition takes this ecological principle as a point of departure for reflecting on interdependence, responsibility, and the potential for positive impact. How can we create our human world to co-operate with and mimic keystone species?

Across performance, painting, film, sculpture, writing, sound, and installation, the artists , .crouch, , , , , , , , , , and approach the idea of keystone species in a multitude of tones.

In our current group exhibition, Keystone Species, the artists trace pathways toward ecological abundance, where making becomes a practice of reciprocity within the worlds we inhabit. Introducing three of the thirteen artists whose work deepens our understanding of these relationships and explores ways of living in harmony as a foundation for shared prosperity.

📷 1: tyroneisaacstuart is a London-based interdisciplinary artist whose work is a hybrid concoction of mediums, including but not limited to song, dance, text & installation. Some works are highly solitary, and some are deeply collaborative. Regardless, all are informed by multi-layered processes & facilitate a dialogue around diasporic experience, industry, intergenerational brokenness, and movement systems.

📷 II: Alex Hincapié is a performer and community organiser based in London. Elements of their practice consist of textiles, soil, clay and wax to create site-specific installations, usually set in q***r underground environments. They employ craft making and participatory games to bring people together, celebrate q***r identities and personal stories.

📷 III: Siena Venturino-Malcherczyk is a London-born multidisciplinary artist working primarily in sculpture and installation. Her practice is deeply informed by the migration histories of her Italian, Irish, and Polish heritage, shaping an ongoing investigation into identity, displacement, and belonging.
Through constructed, in-between spaces composed of soft sculpture, architectural interventions, and tactile materials, Venturino-Malcherczyk invites audiences to physically and psychologically navigate layered narratives. Drawing on familial stories, oral histories, and inherited cultural fragments, she examines how identity is shaped across generations and how feelings of estrangement or rootedness are embedded within both the body, mind, and the built environment.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the opening of Keystone Species. And thank you to the Keystone artists within the group exhibition 🌳

Across performance, painting, film, sculpture, writing, sound, and installation, Owen Bennett, Jennifer Crouch, Alex Hincapié, Lisa Gornick, Jolene Liam, Zoë Marden, Fergus Polglase, Katherine Pogson, Olha Pryymak, Nina Ross, Nwakuba Udenze, Siena Venturino-Malcherczyk and tyroneisaacstuart explore the idea of keystone species, organisms whose presence exerts a disproportionate structuring force within an ecosystem, shaping biodiversity, trophic relationships, and resilience.

Moving between scientific and speculative approaches, the works reflect on interdependence, care, and the ways materials and living systems interact.Together, they invite reflection on interdependence and the conditions that allow complex ecologies, human and more-than-human, to flourish.
