Seven artists engage with notions of desire, consumption and leisure to create a dystopian summer landscape.

green project's elaborate photographic sets imply the easy use of digital manipulation and disturbingly belie the painstaking nature of their origins.

Rachael House has reworked traditional English summer bunting to reveal the underside of its fun-filled promise.

Graham Hudson's heraldic futon frame critiques the 'prozac-Orwell society of celeb-dom... Lakeside-leisure, low taxes and gastropubs'.

Sam Jackson's paintings simultaneously convey a sense of nostalgia and anxiety, using colour which is at times high key and at others subdued and reduced.

David McKeran travels to iconic locations to take snapshots which provide a backdrop for his 'spelling mistake' paintings.

Ian Mitchell uses digital media influenced by Japanese comics to play with narrative, ambiguity, cliche and the mundane.

J A Nicholls's paintings and collages sample visual imagery to create landscapes containing enigmatic associations and with an attenuated sense of time.
