PLATFORM24: Early Career Artist Award
Now in its tenth year, this annual group exhibition is designed to provide a dedicated platform for early-career artists based in Scotland and working in the field of contemporary art within EAF鈥檚 programme. This year鈥檚 Platform artists will respond to the themes of the EAF24 programme, centering intimacy, material memory, protest, and persecution.
Alaya Ang is a multi-disciplinary artist who seeks to tackle the multiple material and symbolic fractures produced by colonialism and capitalism, beginning from their own experience and proximate environments.
Edward Gwyn Jones works with moving image, text and printmaking. He appropriates and reframes seductive and latent artefacts in order to understand and complicate persistent social, technological and personal histories.
Tamara MacArthur uses installation and durational performance to explore longing, futility and the boundaries of intimacy. Their glittering installations are constructed for a moment of emotional intimacy between the viewer and themself.
Kialy Tihngang works in sculpture, video, textiles, animation and photomontage, typically involving elaborate sets, costumes, graphics, props, and collaborations with performers and musicians.
