Natural intelligence is the sum of our lives, and the lives of our ancestors. ‘The Sum’ is a series of work celebrating the ancestry of human algorithms through drawing, photography, a little positive introspection, experience, choice and consequence.
The piece depicts a time, a waking dream and the loves, fears and hopes of the artist, seen through a subjective lens. An echo from the dawn of human history to the mind and hands that created this work. The triptych was commissioned by Coral Churchill for a show at The Muse Gallery, inspired by - May 21st, 2023

Fed and grown out of correspondences, interactions, and exchanges – A procession of symbols is set in motion in playful spirit and recurs in the paintings: the tower-castle – landmark buildings and the artist’s studio –the urban tree corners, the street at night, the horse, the elated and exploding characters merging with the natural surroundings and the city of London, where all of these visions are taking.

Nicholas Cheeseman is an award-winning artist who investigates materiality and process. These sculptures extend a series of paintings and drawings derived from images of paint that is peeling away from rotten wood. These works explore layers that have deteriorated over time and started separating from their substrates. His approach uses a range of media and techniques to record changes in appearance that reveal continuing change. His works are made through processes of construction, deconstruction, reconstruction, and restoration and he is fascinated by how this may cause us to reflect on our value systems. He uses the physical act of making as a means of thinking, and the outcomes explore the boundaries of imperfection, incompleteness, and impermanence. He lives, teaches and works in London having graduated from Chelsea College of Arts and Staffordshire University.

Coral Churchill’s paintings take inspiration from natural forms that allude to cloud, land and seascapes. The horizon is a connecting and repeating point, with prismatic light a central focus to create otherworldly spaces. Images are interlinked, sampling different natural forms and terrains that merge into imagined landscapes. She paints in oil, acrylic and gouache, focusing colour into chromatic gradients, echoing the refracted light of sunrises and sunsets. Her paintings also centre on studies of nature, drawing from the iridescence of jewel-like insects to deep sea creatures and their strange neon bioluminescent lights.
Coral studied painting at Central Saint Martins and has shown her work in solo and group exhibitions since, many at The Muse.

Lauren Goldie is a PhD researcher at Central Saint Martins and the recipient of awards, including the 2022/23 Zsuzsi Roboz Scholarship, the Broomhill National Sculpture Prize, and the Graduate Art Prize. Her solo exhibitions have been showcased at Bankside Artist Space and the Winchester Gallery, with notable residencies in collaboration with Whitechapel Gallery, CASS, and Art Academy Latvia. She has also participated in group exhibitions at venues such as Tate Modern, Second Act Gallery, Woolff Gallery, and internationally in ‘Youth,’ which toured Beijing, Tianjin, and Shijiazhuang, China.
Goldie’s work investigates intersections of speculative fiction and technological innovation in outer space. In response to the rapid growth of the global space economy, which rose by 8% in 2022, she delves into how space industries approach challenges like overpopulation, existential risks, and climate change. Her research centers on asteroid mining, critically examining its proposed role in mitigating Earth’s environmental degradation caused by terrestrial resource extraction. Through sculpture and printmaking, Goldie addresses the broader implications of space-based resource practices, from orbital disturbances and debris generation to questions of resource ownership and ethical stewardship.

Michael Henley is a London based artist whose work deals primarily the duality of process and ideas. He uses this partnership to push and experiment with his medium (ink, graphite & light) as much as possible which in turn informs the research and concept of each body of work. Henley’s fascination with organic bodies and the natural world is a huge influence on his work and through this he aims to create highly detailed pieces that act as portals or, perhaps beacons that invite further inspection wherever they may be. www.michaelhenleyart.com

A multi-disciplinary artist, born in Taiwan, lived and worked in the UK from 2008 - 2022, returned to Taiwan in 2023. As an artist, she is interested in exploring the role of art mediums and artists play in the process of art making.
Her practice is based on the hypothesis that artists are not solo creators, but indeed co-creators in the process of art making. Experimenting with the idea of swapping roles with art materials, she uses paper, crayon, books, water colour, acrylic, text and body movement to explore the ways that she can become the work, one that has instead been created by the art mediums.
Since 2017 she has steadily dedicated and committed her time towards becoming an arts and culture professional; developing projects that aim to support local artists and help transform communities, guided by the question “what purpose or roles artists should have in our world?”

Yuichiro Kikuma’s paintings incorporate non-painterly methods to create conditions for unexpected images to emerge. In recent years he has predominantly used black ink and explored household devices and found objects from the natural world as compositional resources and mark making tools; these tools enable him to work indirectly, often in a mechanical and repetitive manner which leaves space for calculated chance. Kikuma’s works attempt to visualise the invisible forces, patterns or rhythms that exist around us in daily life, in the same way as any landscapes are created as a result of their specific climate. Yuichiro Kikuma was born in 1982 in Chiba, Japan. He is a graduate of Central Saint Martins (2016) and Wimbledon College of Arts (2010). He lives and works in London.

Małgorzata (Gosia) Łapsa-Malawska is a Polish born artist currently based in London. Extensively travelled across South America and Asia, her practice is rooted in the ‘Young Poland Movement’ and informed by the simplicity and subtlety at the core of Japanese aesthetics.
Loosely based on the principle of ideas following the brush wherever it leads, fragments of memories are condensed into semi abstract landscapes, with figures reduced to silhouettes and shadows. Using a pared down palette fading from Payne’s grey to white allow the artist’s conscience to disappear into the horizon while at the same time conjuring a universal subconscience.
The fleetingness of time, the inevitability of transience, are encapsulated in textures and marks; these may even be further reduced by keeping the process of stretching the canvas till last as a final homage to the beauty that lies in imperfection and deterioration.

Through her sculpture, the artist focuses on materials that are modest, everyday and generally left raw and untreated. She finds form through experimentation and a primarily physical relationship with the materials, celebrating their ephemeral nature by pushing the boundaries of their molecular composition. Through proximity, each piece then begins an interaction and palpable tension with the next. A sense of confinement, precariousness and asymmetry create a visual presence of gravitational forces surrounding her work. The artist looks at sculpture, not as a final form, but as a process of creation; an elemental performance that encompasses many creative moments. These moments are captured by her use of transitory materials and presented as a theatrical interpretation of her journey to exhibition, and through the audience beyond. Although the artist channelled her own experience of working by using recycled objects from the surrounding area: Glass, Metal, fabric and plastics, her sculptures stand alone. The work is site specific, yet embodies real objectivity, becoming something independent of her and in turn, and unique to the space and time she has.

Born in Northumberland, Ian Robinson worked in the Oil & Gas Industry until moving to London. Ian had his first solo show in 2011 at Muse Gallery in Notting Hill. The paintings of collections portray objects such as books, records and ephemera, which behold properties regarding passions and hobbies. What plays a large part in the work is an interest in the back stories connected to the enjoyment of our possessions. A muscle memory of playing music on a turntable represents considered time digging through vinyl collections. The painting was made in on my residency at the muse gallery in 2011.

Jayson Singh is a visual artist based in Battersea and has a fine art degree from Central Saint Martin’s. He won an artist residency at “The Muse Gallery” in 2006 and embraced the opportunity to host his own solo exhibition there in that same year. In his own words, here is a brief description of his current practice:
“I often reflect on my heritage as source material in my figurative paintings. One major influence I like to explore, are my vivid memories of childhood visits to Malaysia: my father’s country of birth. With this intention in mind, I adopt motifs such as Malaysian hibiscus flowers for patterned backgrounds and use my memories as metaphors to voice how relevant my heritage has become.
I also incorporate coloured sand in my paintings, to reflect the ephemeral nature of my heritage. By manipulating this material, I find it enjoyable to observe its inter-play with the permanent longevity of what Painting alludes to in terms of legacy.”
Although Jayson creates his Art to further preserve the relevance of his heritage, he’s active in a Time where the practice of figurative painting matters less. However, the artist has embraced various opportunities since the first Pandemic, that have have undermined this barrier. This has included an appearance on Sky Arts’ Portrait Artist of the Year in 2020 and exhibitions at the Royal Society of Portrait Painters inside the Mall Galleries.
Now that Jayson has been invited to exhibit at the Muse gallery’s 20th Anniversary group show, he believes this opportunity will make figurative painting matter even more.

Mark Tamer (b.1965) is a London-based experimental photographer working with analogue materials and techniques. He likes to explore how far he can push the medium, reasoning that it is at the point of breakdown that the medium begins to reveal itself, bringing into focus the base elements that create those illusions of reality. Any accidents or “errors” in the process are embraced as these remind us how vulnerable and delicate we are. Mark has a master’s degree in photography and has exhibited in solo and group shows.
