SUMMARY:Doublewalker - SET Vauxhall Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Doublewalker explores processes of repetition and fragmentation\, and the differences that emerge through them. Taking its title from the etymology of ‘doppelgänger’\, meaning ‘twin stranger’\, the exhibition considers how objects and spaces can appear familiar while remaining slightly out of reach. \n\n\n\nBringing together seven artists working across sculpture\, installation\, and sound\, the exhibition is curated by SET studio member Laura Higgins and presented at SET Vauxhall. \n\n\n\nAbout the exhibition\n\n\n\nUsing processes of fragmentation and remaking\, Doublewalker examines the presence of distant yet recognisable symbols within contemporary culture. Through this\, works repeat and rework familiar forms\, drawing attention to the small differences between things that might at first appear the same. \n\n\n\nAcross the exhibition\, artists explore personal relationships with place\, often focusing on sites that might otherwise go unnoticed. \n\n\n\nPresented as one of the first exhibitions in SET Vauxhall\, Doublewalker responds directly to its surroundings. As a repurposed building shaped through reuse\, elements of its previous life remain visible. Through site-specific installation\, the exhibition nods to these prior uses and the building’s existing structure\, while giving it a new identity within the exhibition. \n\n\n\nThe exhibition also focuses on the spaces between objects and how we experience them alongside others. By repeating and breaking down forms\, the works invite us to look more closely at objects and environments as their meaning begins to shift. \n\n\n\nSome works also touch on wider themes including colonial histories\, inheritance and self-positioning within the current postmodern context.  \n\n\n\nThrough these approaches\, Doublewalker considers how repetition and difference shape the way we understand objects\, spaces and the world around us. \n\n\n\nA live performance by Nell Castor will take place on the opening evening at 7:30pm. The work imitates the selling of medicine\, creating opportunities for interaction between the artist and visitors. \n\n\n\nEvent details\n\n\n\nOpening: Thursday 9 April\, 6-9pmDates: 10-26 AprilOpening hours: Thursday-Sunday\, 12-6pmLocation: SET Vauxhall\, Camelford House\, 89 Albert Embankment\, LondonAdmission: Free \n\n\n\nContributing artists\n\n\n\nNell Castor\nNell Castor is a sculptor and digital artist. Her work is founded on a personal lexicon of color and symbolic characters that wrestle with universal human emotions. Originally from the San Francisco Bay Area\, she now lives and works in London.Website: https://nellclo.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/nell.castor/ \n\n\n\n\nSuzanne Elven\nSuzanne Elven navigates time at an angle\, often recording collision and motion from several temporal stand points. Her current focus lies in foregrounding objects that come into zones of impact – drums\, tennis rackets. Elven’s research lies in the balance between fiction and reality\, drawing from recent work in set building which has her considering the lifespans and solidity of worlds.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/suzanne.elven/ \n\n\n\n\nKairi Tokoro \nKairi Tokoro is a Japanese artist based in London. His practice explores sound\, sculpture\, and performance. His work focuses on the interdependence of objects and human life—how human interaction with materials alters their shape\, color\, and function\, and in turn\, how these changes affect us.Website: https://kairitokoro.com/worksInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/kairitokoro/ \n\n\n\n\nLaura Higgins\nLaura Higgins is a sculptor and visual artist who documents an ongoing process-led inquiry into connecting material with meaning. Often interested in fabrication processes\, ways of bespoke making and the sites that facilitate making\, the findings around new processes are employed and reimagined to evoke contemplation around hidden sites and personal memories. Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lhiggins1616/ \n\n\n\n\nBeatriz Mayorga\nAt its core\, Bea Mayorga’s art practice investigates the concept of the replica\, exploring how copying can both transmit knowledge and act as a tool of cultural control by focussing on materials that are dismissed as “fake”\, such as imitation marble\, artificial tears and false gold. \n\n\n\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/beaamayorga/ \n\n\n\n\nElena Garcia-Sirvent\nElena Garcia-Sirvent is a sound and video artist based in London. Her practice explores the intersection of sound\, materiality\, and perception. Focusing on how sound can interrupt\, penetrate\, and reshape both physical and psychological environments. Inspired by ‘Foley’\, She references the reproduction of everyday sounds\, how sounds can be reimagined\, reproduced and displaced. \n\n\n\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/elegarciasirv/ \n\n\n\n\nIsabel Jones\nIsabel Jones’ work converges painting and sculpture. Exploring personal and communal cyclical mourning rhythms. Integrating personified objects with the found and handmade. Archiving care\, love\, and death. \n\n\n\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/izzygj0nes/ \n\n\n\n\nAbout SET’s Associate Members Programme\n\n\n\nThis exhibition is presented as part of SET’s Associate Members Programme\, which offers artists studio space alongside access to project spaces and opportunities to independently curate exhibitions\, workshops\, and events. \n\n\n\nThe programme supports a wide range of practices\, from performance and installation to music\, sound\, print\, and textiles\, and is designed to provide space\, visibility\, and development opportunities for early-career and underrepresented artists working in London. \n\n\n\nPoster design: Isabel Jones and Suzanne Elven

SUMMARY:Trojan Horses - SET Vauxhall Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Trojan Horses explores how images can hold and carry meanings that are not immediately visible. Taking its cue from a text by Andrew Cranston\, the exhibition considers how aesthetics can act as a point of entry into complex and often uncomfortable subjects. \n\n\n\nBringing together twelve artists working across painting and drawing\, the exhibition is co-curated by SET studio members Tom Houlihan and Elisa Terranera\, and is presented at SET Vauxhall. \n\n\n\nAbout the exhibition\n\n\n\n“Beauty can be a useful Trojan horse to smuggle in darker ideas”\, writes Andrew Cranston in his book Never a Joiner. He is reflecting on his painting Vague feelings of dread (2022)\, where a small group of fish hover above the pearlescent tiled floor of a pond. For Cranston\, their subtle\, shifting movement recalls submarines and warships in the Mediterranean\, becoming a way of expressing unease shaped by conflict and its ongoing presence. \n\n\n\nTrojan Horses takes this idea as its starting point. Bringing together painting and drawing\, the exhibition asks how artists use aesthetics to engage with social and political realities.  \n\n\n\nAcross the exhibition\, the works touch on themes including class\, feminism\, war\, mortality\, identity and religion. Here\, beauty is not simply decorative or resolved; it operates as a point of entry – something that draws viewers in before revealing more layered and challenging ideas beneath the surface. Or\, as Cranston puts it\, “darker ideas”. \n\n\n\nAll twelve artists share a background in observational drawing. At a time marked by political and technological uncertainty\, Trojan Horses reflects on what this longstanding language of picture-making can still hold\, and how painting and drawing continue to offer ways of engaging closely with the world today. \n\n\n\nEvent details\n\n\n\nOpening: Thursday 9 April\, 6-9pmDates: 9-26 AprilOpening hours: Thursday – Sunday\, 12-6pmLocation: SET Vauxhall\, Camelford House\, 89 Albert Embankment\, LondonAdmission: FreeThe exhibition is also viewable by appointment.
