We’re currently delighted to be hosting Emily in the space for a two-week residency. Supporting Lincolnshire-based artists is an important part of what we do, and it’s wonderful to have the opportunity to work with Emily. Here’s a little more about her and her practice.

Emily Collyer is an artist and designer living and working in Lincoln, known for her illustrative and positive depictions of the female, q***r body.

As she reflects on current social and political conversations around female, q***r and trans bodies, Emily uses the space at General Practice Studios to adapt her practice. She explores how women can embrace their pleasure and joy through the sickening, in a world obsessed with trad-wifery, clean girl aesthetics and puritanism. Engaging with body horror and camp in a close capacity, she examines how the two unexpectedly overlap and takes visual inspiration from titles such as John Carpenter’s The Thing and Ridley Scott’s Alien, as well as the drag queen Divine and camp icons Grace Jones and Liza Minelli.

Emily uses their residency at gP to develop their painting practice, working for the first time straight onto raw canvas fabric.

Apolune — Returning to home base, join us on Thursday 21 May for an evening of contemporary art, drinks, conversation and the chance to celebrate the warmer days together.

Apolune — the point in an orbit farthest from the moon becomes both title and provocation for this group exhibition by members of General Practice. Rooted in ideas of distance, trajectory and return, the exhibition offers a poetic starting point for reflection, experimentation and reorientation.

Apolune

Apolune, the point in a spacecraft’s, satellites or celestial body’s orbit farthest from the moon, becomes

both title and provocation for this group exhibition by members of General Practice. Rooted in ideas of
distance, trajectory and return, it offers a poetic starting point for reflection, experimentation and
reorientation.

Invited by MEZZANINE to present their first General Practice exhibition in London, the group brings
together contemporary and experimental approaches across animation, projection, painting, sculpture and
mixed media.

Featuring work by Lauren Winter, Nicholas Simpson, Nathan Baxter, Madara Vimba,
Andrew Bracey, Rob Britt, Joana Cifre Cerdà and Oliver Ventress, the exhibition reflects a year of
development and playful exchange. What emerges is a constellation of practices that are distinct yet
interconnected.

MEZZANINE is an artist run, non profit space in the Bermondsey Triangle, established in September
2024 as a Community Interest Company. With studios, shared workspaces and a newly renovated gallery,

it supports artists to develop and present diverse creative practices. General Practice extends sincere
thanks for the opportunity to share their evolving work and continue building networks between artist led

spaces regionally and nationally.

What a night.

Friday was something special the room was alive, the energy undeniable. Huge congratulations to everyone who brought the show to life… you absolutely smashed it. And thank you to everyone who showed up, filled the space, and made it what it was.

It’s nights like this that remind you why spaces for experimentation matter places to explore, to play, to take risks, to become something new.

The show continues until 27 February — come experience it while you can.

ANIMALGAMATION

Animalgamation is a collaborative exhibition exploring the Anthropocene through digital media, extinction, and hybrid creatures. Through sculpture, installation, and video, the artists transform the gallery into a shifting, creature-like environment — a living reflection of humanity’s constant reshaping of the Earth.

Blending eldritch horror, playfulness, and digital aesthetics, the exhibition invites visitors inside an evolving organism built from multiple artistic voices. Individual works intertwine with a large collaborative chimera, merging video, sound, taxidermy, foam, and abstract forms to question environmental damage, hybridity, and extinction.

Info

Open Saturdays, 12–4pm, and by appointment (DM)

Exhibition Title: Reef

We currently have Julie Oxenforth in the General Practice Project Space as our artist in residence. She has been working playfully across the project space and surrounding locations, expanding her existing body of work.

A private view will take place on Friday 6th February, followed by the exhibition opening to the public on Saturday 7th February. Come along for our first show of 2026 warm up, have a drink, meet the artist, and join the conversation.

Working in site-specific installation, Oxenforth seeks to expand and energise each space she inhabits. Using objects and found ephemera, she moves between large-scale gestures and fine details, drawing the viewer into the present moment. Living on the North Sea shore, she is deeply attuned to the power and destruction of nature exploring fragility and resilience, impermanence and erosion.
