Where Islington Mill

Every drawing begins with permission. Every encounter leaves a trace.

Some people pass through our lives unnoticed. Others leave us quietly altered. This exhibition begins with those moments.

Working in ink, pencil, charcoal, paint, pastel and chalk, these are intimate works centred on the male body, shaped through trust, conversation and careful attention. Each piece begins as an encounter between artist and sitter, where vulnerability becomes collaboration and every mark carries the memory of time shared.

These aren't drawings of naked men. They're drawings of trust.

Not idealised bodies or polished narratives, but live records. The charcoal stays dusty. The ink bleeds. Paint records hesitation as readily as confidence. Every imperfection is evidence that someone was here.

Jason will be there throughout the evening, glad to talk about the work, the process, and the people who shaped it.

Private sittings from 8pm

A limited number of visitors can step beyond observing and register interest in posing for a one-to-one drawing. Places are limited, and registering interest does not guarantee a sitting. No pressure and no performance — just a continuation of the same permission, trust and attention that made the work on the walls.

Every ticket enters the draw

One original framed work from the exhibition, drawn at the end of the night.

Come curious. Leave changed.
