// ABOUT JENNIFER MARTIN

Jennifer Martin (b 1990) is based in London, working with photography, installation, and moving image. Her work is concerned with the potential and potency of photography, as well as the dupable expectation for accuracy and neutrality. A driving question of Martin’s recent work involves the role of art and media, more broadly, in the construction of race and its intersection with representation, agency, nostalgia, and identification.

Martin graduated from the Slade School of Fine Art with a BA in Fine Art (2013) and is currently studying MA Photography at the Royal College of Art (2018). In 2017 Martin took part in Chisenhale Studio’s Studio4 Residency and the Durham Wharf Foundation Residency, holding workshops and events that took place across South London Gallery, The Showroom, and ICA London. Selected exhibitions include: Live at Lychee One, Lychee One (London), RPS International Print Exhibition 259, Royal Albert Hall (London), Der Greif: A Process 2.0, Krawków Photomonth (Kraków), Getting Lost, Villa Iris (Santander), Guest-Room, Galerie f5,6 (Munich).

WORKSHOP CODE:

Turf aims to be a space where all are welcomed & respected. We ask all attendees to align with this spirit when booking and support us in creating a welcoming & collaborative atmosphere together. We ask that everyone is;

  • Kind and respectful in our language and behaviour towards others. Turf is a space which is anti racism, sexism, homophobia and ableism.
  • Considerate of others’ time; allowing others room to speak & engage.
  • Respectful of the space itself as belonging to many people, treating the space & objects with care.
  • Attend wherever possible: In 2023, around 30% of people booking free tickets didn’t turn up! Our free tickets are limited and in high demand. Every person who doesn’t turn up means someone else can’t attend, so please let us know if you can’t make it to free up a space. If you don’t attend twice or more without letting us know, you may be restricted from booking again.
