Nasha Cash is a Sheffield-born, Manchester-based artist and illustrator whose work comprises a dichotomy of explosive and expressive use of colour and monochrome puddles of line and form. Taking much of her inspiration from dreams, meditative practices, folklore and psychedelic experiences, Nasha’s work is weird and a little silly. This project has challenged Nasha to move beyond art as escapism and plunge into the more vulnerable depths of overtly political art. 

Wemmy Ogunyankin is a visual anthropologist and poet whose work explores questions of identity, belonging, love, social justice and Blackness.

She has a BA in Journalism Studies, an MA in Visual Anthropology and is currently doing a PhD in American Studies. She describes this endless education, and her art, as a lifelong chase for justice.
