Danielle Arnaud is pleased to share that gallery artists Tessa Farmer and Oona Grimes are included in the upcoming group exhibition ‘Occupied: Strange Company’ at Safehouses, Peckham on view between 15-17 May 2026. ‘Occupied: Strange Company’ is an exhibition of contemporary art set within two stripped back and neglected Victorian houses in Peckham. Curated by Julie Hoyle, the exhibition brings together a cross-section of artists, from Royal Academicians and established practitioners to emerging artists, alongside those working within disability and community contexts. Painting, sculpture, print, installation, ceramics and moving image are placed throughout the houses, shifting the atmosphere from room to room.

Oona Grimes, Etruscan ghosts : Medea syndrome #75 & #80 diptych, 2025 Coloured pencil & collage on drafting film 14 7/10 × 16 9/10 in | 37.3 × 43 cm Oona Grimes’ Etruscan ghosts: Medea syndrome #75 & #80 (2025) continues her exploration of myth, memory, and mischief through fragile, hand-drawn archetypes. Rendered in coloured pencil and collage on drafting film, these spectral twins fuse Etruscan iconography with cartoon surrealism, evoking the tragic duplicity of Medea - maternal tenderness entangled with violent retribution. Showing in Bump in the Night – a group exhibition curated by Nicola Bealing for Blackbird Rook. Last day today. Link in @blackbird_rook bio. @grimesoona @nicola_bealing The show gathers figurative works that dwell on that slippery edge where the familiar turns strange, where humour and menace quietly entwine. In this gathering of voices each artist brings a different register of presence, touch, tactility - and the slight unsettling that comes when the ordinary shifts. #MarkConnolly DamienDeroubaix GrantFoster GertAndUweTobias AndyHarper OonaGrimes NicolaBealing justinfitzpatrick ThomTrojanowski susanmetrican TomWorsfold LisaWright MariannaHatzinikolaou ThomasHylander TheoMichael DonalMoloney /show/blackbird-rook-bump-in-the-night
