Emerging artist and photographer Benedetta Martini is currently studying Fine Art at Camberwell College of Arts. Specialising in photography, her work explores the meanings that we attribute to our sense of place. Through installations incorporating moving image as well as analogue photography, she investigates the qualities of objects and their component materials, highlighting the relationships they have with their environment – and subsequently with ourselves.
THURSDAY 25 FEBRUARY
Preview: The Workers
6 – 8:30 pm @ Standpoint London, 45 Coronet Street, Hoxton, London N1 6HD

Successful artists have always employed studio assistants, their contribution glossed over in the narratives surrounding the artworks. ‘The Workers’ interleaves pieces by five artists who have been Susan Collis’s long-term studio assistants, together with some new drawings by Collis. Alongside their making for Collis, all of the selected artists are art practitioners in their own rights.
