In September, UAL announced the eight emerging and mid-career artists in the first of 2 cohorts of 20/20: a national commissioning and network project directly investing in the careers of a new generation of ethnically diverse artists. Meet @aqsa.arif.art - who uses the interdisciplinary mediums of poetry, printmaking, film and installation - constructing spaces to explore the psychological experience of resettlement in the western culture, identity disruption and the process of healing through archetypal self-individuation. “My practice involves the synthesis of unlikely elements which I collect from different locations, the coastline, woodlands and vintage markets. The core of my work exists in the found element, matter that already surrounds us, an enduring reflection of the human condition.” Find out more about this project through the link in our bio. 🖼️: Aqsa Arif, Within her Window of Decadence, 2021, laser print on canvas paper Courtesy of the artist Image description: vibrant artwork of a woman's side-profile, laser printed onto canvas paper
