Ceramic artist Matthew Raw’s new solo show in Plymouth is an exploration of migration, the evolution of cities and social change told through the lens of the city’s now-closed zoo. With the help of both students from the Plymouth College of Art and much younger makers, Matthew has created an installation of tiles that tells this nuanced and unique story, while providing the opportunity for kids to develop the hand and creative skills now so sorely lacking in the classroom.

From Brexit woes to imminent species distinction, it’s easy to let the current climate get you down.

Walk into Selfridges between 18 and 31 March and you’ll be greeted by a Hieronymus Bosch-inspired take on a medieval mummers play, all happening in and around a skip. Yep, you heard that right...

Artists Dan Edelstyn and Hilary Powell didn’t just want to comment on the exploitative nature of austerity Britain, they wanted to do something about it. As Bank Job, the pair have written off a phenomenal £1m in predatory payday debt through a community project soon to culminate with a documentary and one hell of an explosion.

From bin men chuckling at David Shrigley sculptures to mums taking selfies with the work and their kids, SKIP Gallery challenges preconceptions about where art can be shown and who it is shown to.
