Henry Hudson is a visual artist from London, England. His work spans across a broad range of mediums and subject matter but is best known for his highly detailed works using colourful plasticine. His incredibly beautiful psychedelic jungle scenes are somewhere between painting and sculpture and redefine whats possible with the common medium.

Julia deVille is an artist, jeweller and taxidermist. Her use of taxidermied animals, often partially encrusted with precious stones and presented on expensive silverware, are both beautiful and eerie. They challenge our disregard for and consumption of wild and domesticated animals, as well as honouring their life by immortalising their beauty.

Adrian Cox is an LA based artist who's figurative oil paintings transport the viewer into his strange post-human, mythological world called "The Borderlands". This world is inhabited with a variety of humanoid creatures, some made of light, others made of organic fleshy organs with flowers and crystals growing in between. Adrian talks me through his created mythology and how the narrative has evolved over time.
