What if the everyday held a little more magic? 🎨✨

Artist of the Season Winner Katrina Avotina transforms familiar places and everyday encounters into vibrant worlds where imagination takes centre stage.

From city streets and historic architecture to gardens and distant landscapes, Katrina uses expressive colour and rhythmic compositions to capture not simply what a place looks like, but how it feels to experience it.

Her paintings invite us to pause, look closer, and find something unexpected within the familiar — leaving space for our own memories, associations, and stories to enter the picture.

Colour as feeling.
Place as memory.
Painting as storytelling.
Imagination as possibility.

What if strength begins where fragility ends? ✨

Artist of the Season Winner Monika Tkaczyk invites us to look beyond the surface.

Through layered, hand-painted glass, light reveals shifting textures, fractures, and reflections — creating works that change with their surroundings and with the viewer’s perspective.

Her practice reflects on the delicate relationship between vulnerability and resilience, reminding us that transformation is rarely sudden. Sometimes it happens quietly, through light, pressure, adaptation, and time.

Glass as metaphor.
Light as transformation.
Fragility can hold strength.
Change reveals what lies beneath.

Can photography make the familiar feel unknown?📷

Artist of the Season Winner Livvy Dawson transforms landscapes through experimental photographic processes, creating images that sit somewhere between recognition and abstraction.

Movement, light, cyanotype, and camera-less techniques disrupt the familiar, revealing landscapes that feel simultaneously fragile, strange, and alive.

Her work invites us to slow down and reconsider what we see — and what might exist beyond the surface of an image.

Nature in flux.
Photography in transformation.
Reality open to interpretation.
Perception never fixed.

Where does colour take you? 🎨

Artist of the Season Winner Katrina Avotina transforms landscapes, architecture, and everyday moments into vibrant paintings where reality and imagination meet.

Drawing inspiration from her Latvian heritage, travels, and life in Yorkshire, Katrina creates richly layered compositions that celebrate colour, memory, and emotional connection — where observation becomes the starting point for visual stories that invite each viewer to find their own meaning.

Guided by expressive colour and rhythmic composition, her paintings capture not just the appearance of a place, but its atmosphere and emotional resonance. Every canvas is an invitation to slow down and see the extraordinary within the ordinary.

Colour as feeling.
Place as memory.
Every canvas, an open door.

What if fragility could become a source of strength? ✨

Artist of the Season Winner Monika Tkaczyk transforms kiln-fired, hand-painted glass into luminous abstract works that explore vulnerability, resilience, and the possibility of transformation.

For Monika, glass is both medium and metaphor: delicate yet resilient, transparent yet layered, constantly changing through light, reflection, and the viewer’s perspective.

Inspired by ecology and spirituality, her work explores environmental fragility as both a physical and emotional condition.

Fractures, textures, and shifting reflections become expressions of adaptation and renewal, a reminder that nothing is entirely fixed. Not nature. Not ourselves. Not the way we see.

Glass as metaphor
Fragility can hold strength.
Light can reveal transformation.

What if nature becomes unfamiliar? 🌿

Artist of the Season Winner Livvy Dawson transforms familiar environments into abstract photographic worlds where nature, technology, and human intervention collide.

Working across digital photography, cyanotype, and camera-less processes, Livvy experiments with movement, light, and layered image-making to create landscapes that feel both recognisable and unsettled.

Her practice explores a world in flux — questioning how environmental change reshapes the places we inhabit, while asking what happens when photography itself becomes increasingly transformed by digital technology and AI.

Through her hybrid approach, Livvy challenges our assumptions about what a photograph can be, and what we understand as real.

Nature in flux.
Photography in transformation.
Reality open to interpretation.

Where nature meets technology 💦📷

Artist of the Season Winner Livvy Dawson explores the fragile relationship between humanity, technology, and the natural world through experimental photography.

Working across digital photography, cyanotype, and camera-less processes, she transforms familiar landscapes into abstract visual environments shaped by movement, light, and layered photographic processes.

Her images explore a world in flux, reflecting the tension between environmental change, human intervention, and nature’s resilience.

Her practice asks us to look beyond what we think we know, questioning how we see, what we perceive as real, and what the future of photography might look like in an increasingly digital and AI-driven world.

Nature in flux.
Photography in transformation.
