Group Exhibition


I’M SO SICKLE OF IT
24/11/2022 - 27/11/2022


Stokey Pop Up:
147 Stoke Newington High Street, N16 ONY, London, UK



Artists were given the opportunity to respond to themes of a political, sociological and spiritual nature - in the context of current world events and/or the future. The exhibition displayed a variety of media, from emerging and established artists, including Gavin Turk, Jisoo Jit Seo and Mitchell Smith. In contrast to previous UC exhibitions which have largely been held in unconventional, 'DIY' spaces, this show took place in a white cube gallery across two floors. Curated by Cherish Marshall, MFA graduate of Wimbledon College of Arts. Visitors were faced with an immersive experience and took part in interactive performances and art pieces, including a video game.


I'M SO SICKLE OF IT displayed works of 20 international artists at various stages of their careers. Artist talks held on the Sunday revealed that despite the artists coming from different walks of life, there was a common thread and unifying sense which was built around critiquing 'the elite'.
