No Captcha Thanks exhibition
No Captcha Thanks
In a time when the computer program Captcha is commonly used to distinguish whether or not the user is human, a selection of work by 9 London based artists embraces physical and sensory experience through a variety of approaches to the art object’s material support be it canvas, panel, or paper.
The support provides the artists with a palpable surface on which they impart their expression with the use of paint, graphite, ink, found objects, or deep-fried batter. We are invited into a world void of computer codes where we may detect traces left by bodily movement, catch a reflection or enter the personal space of a painting.

Having exhibited and created alongside at The Koppel’s Project studios, I quickly became a big fan of Alexander Stavrou’s conception of his own art and by default his curatorial work. I enjoy how he takes time, thorough approach, and deep, deep appreciation of the processes involved in manifesting an idea into reality.
Working with him during this show has been a great pleasure.
