Enter into a dreamworld with Henry Roy’s IMPOSSIBLE ISLAND: a languid meditation on forty years of Henry Roy’s immersive works spanning Haiti, France, the DRC, Thailand and Tunisia, where sun-kissed images and fragmented texts drift and weave together.

Drawing on French modernism, New Wave aesthetics, creolization and Haitian spiralisme, Roy moves through an animistic sensibility in which transcendent, fleeting moments reject the imperialist frameworks that have so often defined how these places are seen.

Take a narrated tour through BLINDED BY YOUR GRACE: ’s visual research project examining the gendered privilege of risk, made in dialogue with women who chase storms out of devotion to the sublime.

Who is permitted to approach danger, and who is expected to remain safe? BLINDED BY YOUR GRACE explores how the gravitational pull towards danger for the sake of beauty functions as a condition of vulnerability, and is transformed into an allegorical terrain through which broader structures of gender, visibility and desire come into view.

Printed on raw untrimmed newsprint with grainy, oblique reproductions that mirror the atmospheric intensity of the storms themselves, discover Chaplin Espenon’s gritty, mesmerising typology of blackened skies now at loosejoints.biz

Abdulhamid Kircher hard at work on the install of ROTTING FROM WITHIN, opening this Friday at as part of the Triennial of Photography!

Kircher’s immersive installation — nine metres wide, more than two metres high — is a sprawling panorama of photographs, texts and archival material weaving between Berlin and Turkey, tracing the dynamics of patriarchy and violence across generations alongside the search for growth, reconciliation and cultural belonging.

ROTTING FROM WITHIN was ’s debut monograph, published in 2024. Final copies are available now at loosejoints.biz alongside his new release NEW GENESIS — a four-year portrait of one young mother in Los Angeles navigating homelessness, domestic abuse and the slow violence of a system built to fail them.

KYIV: This Friday 05 June from 6pm, join us at for the launch of ’s WET GROUND ❤️

Developed over seven years of living and working in Ukraine as a volunteer, WET GROUND is a portrait of the slippery terrain of Ukrainian identity made from inside the conflict, rather than in response to it. We are thrilled to bring WET GROUND back to Ukraine to celebrate with the community of people who made the project possible. Alongside the launch, we will be hosting a fundraising raffle in support of .group, a volunteer unit from Kyiv.

Loose Joints will also be at Kyiv Art Book Fair across the weekend — find us at 1P13, Akademika Hlushkova Ave from Friday through Sunday.

КИЇВ: Цього п’ятниці, 5 червня, о 18:00 приєднуйтесь до нас у на презентацію книги WET GROUND 🖤

Створений протягом семи років життя та роботи в Україні як волонтер, «WET GROUND» — це портрет складного ландшафту української ідентичності, створений зсередини конфлікту, а не у відповідь на нього. Ми раді повернути WET GROUND до України, щоб відсвяткувати разом із спільнотою людей, які зробили цей проєкт можливим. Окрім презентації, ми проведемо благодійну лотерею на підтримку .group — київського волонтерського підрозділу.

Loose Joints також буде присутній на Київському арт-книжковому ярмарку протягом вихідних — шукайте нас за адресою проспект Академіка Глушкова, 1П13, з п’ятниці по неділю.

How does a frame change an artwork? In PAINTED FRAMES, the legendary Malick Sidibé’s iconic portraits of post-independence Mali are reframed as they were always intended: small, intimate, and alive as social objects.

Made in collaboration with local Malian artisans near the end of his life, these vivid hand-painted glass frames were functional keepsakes, gifted and circulated between friends, families and across borders, linking communities across time and place.

’s RUDE IN THE GOOD WAY is suffused with glimpses into spaces of desire and sexuality, including stolen glances of painter John Currin’s studio — erotically charged, unresolved, and drifting. How do images seduce, sell, flirt, and promise, and where does decency sit inside that economy?

RUDE IN THE GOOD WAY explores how art can playfully provoke this question, as Ethridge’s inscrutable mix of commercial glamour, private sexuality and studio play never quite settles, always winking toward something just out of frame.

Discover RUDE IN THE GOOD WAY now at loosejoints.biz alongside our reissue set IN THE BEGINNING that reunites Ethridge’s first-ever forays into his unique image world from the early 2000s, now back in print. Save 50% on both in our Artist Bundle!

How does it feel to be a woman in a male-dominated field?

Sarah Chaplin Espenon’s new book BLINDED BY YOUR GRACE turns a feminine gaze to the power and beauty of storms, collaborating with a network of women storm chasers to create an allegorical space around the gendered privilege of risk. Who is allowed to run toward danger? BLINDED BY YOUR GRACE rejects masculine mythologies of conquest and control, seeking a space of transcendence and presence through grainy, oblique translations of the storm.
