Material Conversations, curated by Hanna Ten Meulen, marked the culmination of the Dazed Club x Mason & Fifth artist residency, which launched this summer. Eight artists from across the UK, France, Lebanon, and Mexico – Daniel Santangelo, Deniz Bedir, Ignacio Maximiliano Ruelas Lopez, Meenakashi Ghadial, Susan Kellaway, Tonique Sewell, Yahvi Duggal, and Yasmina Hilla – were invited to Mason & Fifth’s new location in Westbourne Grove for two months of creation. Staying at the guesthouse and residence, with its rooms, shared studios, and canal-side complex, the artists had the space and freedom to experiment and collaborate.
To celebrate their inspiring work – spanning everything from oils and woven pieces made with kitchen waste to 3D photo collage – Dazed invited the artists’ club, art world luminaries, friends, and local creatives to an evening with the artists on August 14. Guests enjoyed drinks from Badwater Tequila and Dalston Soda in the exhibition space before spilling out onto the wildflower-planted deck overlooking the Regent’s Canal. See all the photos above.
