Featured Artists
Ashleigh Spice
Ashleigh Spice is a photographer and artist and has a rare condition affecting her central nervous system called Neurocardiogenic Presyncope, along with Autism, Epilepsy and other comorbidities. She graduated from university in 2013 with a First Class BA (Hons) in Photography.
Ashleigh was bed-bound, unable to move or speak when she was younger, and still struggles to this day. She requires daily help to take care of herself and is an ambulatory wheelchair user. These 'interruptions' she has had to deal with in life have been the soul context around her art.
Ashleigh’s work often depicts how her Autism and physical health have restricted large parts of her life. Ashleigh’s portraits encourage the analysis of the self, attempting to display her disabilities that often appear hidden in a typical photograph or certainly in daily life.
‘My practice is a way for me to breathe; to be able to step back from my life which can get very hectic in my brain and help me look at it from a spectator’s view and process it easier. I like that it gives others a chance to see how I see. It’s mindful and therapeutic – I get lost in it. I think it helps me understand myself and how I am feeling. I started the same line of work when I was just 13 (self-portraits, eyes) and only when I was around 23 I started to realise why I am so intrigued by that – my health! And, after being diagnosed in 2019, my autism!’

Mernpunk
Mernpunk was established in 2017, with owners Dale and Matt Lodge having a passion for recycling and eco-reuse. Beginning with repairing and upcycling furniture, Mernpunk has since expanded into lighting and art, primarily due to a chance meeting with the owner of a mannequin recycling business. All of Mernpunk’s art and design pieces are made using discarded items that would otherwise have been destined for landfill.
The drive behind Mernpunk’s art is to see something that could so easily have ended up poluting the planet turned into something beautiful and functional for the home.
One of our areas of speciality is our ‘one of a kind’ mannequin art lamps and homewares. These pieces are made by reusing former shop mannequins which are no longer in a condition to be useful in retail. Every shop mannequin is either made from fibreglass or plastic, which makes them very hard to dispose of at the end of their lifetime. This is one of the many reason we have chosen to recycle them into art pieces and eyecatching homewares – what better way to give them a new use in life and save them from landfill!
Mernpunk is a Member of the House of Upcycling, the UK’s leading professional upcycling authority and Industry Partner of the BIID (British Institute of Interior Design)
