Edie Jo Murray

Edie’s creative practice focuses on perceptions of space, reality, and the world(s) we live in. Digital tools such as 3D rendered imagery and immersive technologies are used to visualise alternate worlds and reimagine existing ones. This digital output is augmented through exploration of physical media, with particular consideration for the sensory properties of materials and how they can enhance or distort experiences of space.

Ayesha Jones

I am currently working as the Audience Development Officer at the Belgrade Theatre in Coventry. I am also an artist that uses photography and film to interrogate our social structures and belief systems, through personal narratives. My autobiographical project which explores disability, female sexuality, family lineage and imposed ideals was one of 30 projects to receive an international award from Magnum Photos, to find 30 emerging documentary photographers from around the world. It also came top 3 in the public's vote.

​

I have always struggled to express myself through words, or in a linear way. I fell in love with visual art at a young age as it gave me the tools I needed to be able to express the things I saw and felt but struggled to articulate.

Jazz Moreton

Jazz Moreton is an interdisciplinary artist who has multiple disabilities as a result of surviving a stroke as a teenager, and a passion for activism and equality.

Since graduating with First Class Honours in Fine Art in 2017, she has worked in performance, sound, and traditional visual arts, and has exhibited and performed in Coventry, Brighton, and London.

Jazz is passionate about using her experiences as a person with multiple disabilities, along with her creative ability and drive for genuine equality, to create positive social change through art and the arts.

Hayley Williams-Hindle

Hayley Williams-Hindle is a research-based interdisciplinary artist, writer, and coach with a particular focus on neuro-diversity. She is interested in illuminating and exploring the cultural essence of neurodivergent lived experience and its communicative challenges. Her practice often holds in tension a celebration and elevation of the humanity and necessity of the neurodivergent mind-body, alongside a lament of its lived reality. Current work explores the nature of ‘spikey’ profiles of human cognitive ability; using additive colour theory and data art in installation; and evoking an unbounded worldview of neurodivergent possibility in community via still images and VR. Other strands of work examine somatic (body) memory, trauma, and the temporal and spatial reality of self within and beyond lifetimes.
