'LA Gun Club' Exhibition: Palo Gallery, New York
I am thrilled to be starting the new year with a show in NYC at the Palo Gallery. Continuing my on-going obsession with subjects that blur the line between legal and social acceptability 'LA Gun Club' is a series of photographs of shooting range targets, and accompanying text that create a snapshot of American attitudes towards guns, gun use and gun ownership.
Jane Hilton: LA Gun Club. 9th February - 6th April 2024.
Palo Gallery, 30 Bond Street, New York 10012, United States.
'Insta Me, Baby!' Exhibition: Germany
Coming up in April this year is a show curated by Henrik Becker and Anita Fogh Madsen at Kunst Für Angeln in Kappeln, Germany. I am thrilled to be one of the artists chosen. Diverse social media and controversial digital worlds have fundamentally changed our lives in recent years, and art is no exception. The project, carried out in collaboration with artists in Denmark and Schleswig-Holstein, asks questions about the interface between art and social media, especially Instagram. How do the digital worlds affect artistic creation and how does art in turn influence social media?
Insta Me, Baby! 7th April - 5th May 2024.
Kunst Für Angeln, Wittkielhof, 24409 Wittkiel, North Germany.
'Home on the Range': Pop-up Exhibition
For the first time, I presented a 'Pop-Up' exhibition in my studio at home, aptly titled 'Home on the Range'. Collaborating with Carrie Scott we brought a taste of the American West back to north London. It was a fantastic few days, where the sun shone and the work 'pinged' off the walls.

'City, Country, Connectivity' Exhibition: Germany
"City, Country, Connectivity" is designed to connect the different facets of the exhibition's title theme - it aims to examine the qualitative attributions, ideas and desires with which we populate the spaces of "city" and "country", and the vistas that the assembled artistic positions can open up for us in the process.
