Art Riot Collective – Response to Jason Wilsher-Mills Exhibition (June–September 2024)
Art Riot Collective artists developed a group exhibition in response to Jason Wilsher-Mills: The Super Cool Digital Artist! at Rugby Art Gallery and Museum (22 June – 7 September 2024).
Artists including Ismatjahan Ravat, Ketan Mistry, Roxsmith, Bryony Line, Richard Raponi, Joe Patrick, Steven Willis, Johnathan, Bryn McKay, Tony Atkins, Darren, Corinne, Colleen, and Bri exhibited work inspired by Wilsher-Mills’ vibrant, technology-driven practice.
His work—spanning digital imagery, sculpture, and interactive elements, and rooted in personal experience, pop culture, and disability—encouraged ARC artists to explore bold colour, storytelling, and new approaches to making, reflecting on their own narratives and creative processes.
Originally trained in oil painting, Wilsher-Mills transitioned to digital media following disability, building an internationally recognised practice, with exhibitions at major institutions including Tate Modern and the V&A, and as recipient of the Adam Reynolds Award (2020).
