Meet the artists behind the Fixation exhibition by [@thewhogallery]

We popped into the Fixation exhibition by pop up gallery The Who Gallery last month. Below, we meet three of the artists who were involved and explore their work.

The Who Gallery aim to showcase young emerging artists across the city.

Fixation, curated by Makesa Kaizen and Richard Dixon, was about exploring all types of addiction and the impact of them on a person’s life and mental health.

A loss of control is central to any addictive behaviour

@mariamm_s – artist

When you first walked down into the gallery you were met by a sea of women’s naked torsos lining the walls in a range of pinks, peaches, browns, purples and ink lines. @mariamm_s uses a variety of oil and acrylic paint and ink to produce her enticing pieces.
