Conor Rogers (b. 1992) lives and works in Sheffield. In combining image and object Rogers endeavors to expose the reality of life in Britain. The artworks within the exhibition are by-products of deep personal connections formed from lived experience, memory, and conversation. They explore social commentary, cultural identities, class dynamics, stereotypes, and our sense of self. He recently exhibited a solo show at Slugtown with Pipeline, and has been included in group exhibitions in many galleries including Collyer Bristow, GUTS, OOF (all London); Holden Gallery, Manchester, and Millenium Gallery, Sheffield. Rogers won 1st Prize in UK New Artist of the Year Award in 2019, was selected for Bloomberg New Contempories, and has his work in the collections of The Arts Council Collection, and Museums Sheffield acquired by The National Portrait Gallery.
