Artist
Name: Meg Erridge
Art form: sculpture, fine art
Artist bio: “having recently graduated from the Ruskin School of Art, University of Oxford, I am navigating the challenges of working outside of an institution for the first time. My recent work grapples with what it means to form networks outside of established power structures, and how art and the art community might be used as tools for political dissent. Much of my work is performance-based, and the objects I make might be seen as props, records of previous performances, or propositions for future works. I am also the winner of the Henry Moore Institute’s 2023 BA Dissertation Prize for my lyric essay on one-way mirrors and state surveillance.”
