About Us

Hot Desque is an artistic practice between Lizzy Drury and Neena Percy, founded in 2018. They met while studying an MA in Painting at the Royal College of Art in London, UK. Their practice spans site-specific installation, film, drawing and writing, creating theatrical mise-en-scènes with other artists. Pushing the boundaries of curation, through worldbuilding they explore the potential to re-enchant objects and matter,  through collaborations with other artists.
Hot Desque has staged exhibitions and interventions internationally and in the UK at the Theatre Royal Newcastle (Newcastle, UK), Centre for Contemporary Art (Glasgow, UK), The NewBridge Project (Newcastle, UK), A.P.T. Gallery (London, UK), The Swiss Church (London, UK), Collato/e/ral Art Fair (New Delhi, India). They have been supported by Arts Council England, Freelands Foundation, A-N Union and the Gibbs Trust. They are current awardees of Hypha Studios Longterm Resident Artists 2022-2024.
