London arts organisation Artangel pairs with forward-thinking artist to commission new works and exhibitions for the city, on boundary-pushing topics. Current ambition Come As You Really Are, by Hetain Patel – now on show at The Hobby Cave at Grants, Croydon – is a warm look at the work of hobbyists in various disciplines across the UK, ranging from a handcrafted Spiderman suit to a Ford Escort covered in tufting, imparting a valuable message about life outside of the demands of capitalism.

The Story of Fixity by Noémie Goudal is an ambitious new installation, currently on at Borough Yards.
Time Out says
The Story of Fixity by Noémie Goudal is an ambitious new installation featuring an immersive three-channel film.
Across three screens, Goudal pairs the cycles of water with the rhythms of day and night, bringing together universally understood rhythms with new scientific research. Currently on at Borough Yards. Book tickets: https://www.artangel.org.uk/project/the-story-of-fixity/
Artangel produces and presents extraordinary art in unexpected places across London, the UK, and beyond.
For over thirty years, we have generated some of the most widely discussed art of recent times, including prominent large-scale projects with artists who have become household names in the UK, including the likes of Jeremy Deller, Roger Hiorns, Michael Landy and Rachel Whiteread.
Appearing anywhere from empty prisons to underground vaults, prime-time TV to the sky at night, Artangel commissions and produces art that takes on a variety of forms and is presented in different places to offer varying points of access and interaction to a curious public. With each new interpretation and experience, we seek to extend the boundaries of what art can be, where it can appear, and how it can be engaged with.
Recent Artangel projects you may recognise include Taryn Simon’s An Occupation of Loss, Heiner Goebbels’ Everything that happened and would happen, Steve McQueen’s Year 3, in collaboration with Tate Britain, Afterness on Orford Ness, and Oscar Murillo’s Frequencies.
