Anteros Resident Studio Holders
Ali Marron
Ali Marron is an analogue collage artist working from her studio in Anteros Arts Foundation.
She has cultivated a special interest in using unusual and found materials in her artwork, especially postage stamps.
She has created a unique medium and technique where she hand cuts and layers materials to make large colourful portraits and figures in her own unmistakable signature style.
A UEA Creative Writing graduate with a background in Gestalt psychotherapy and Community Arts, she has a fascination with people, narrative, identity and history.
Her artwork is made up of thousands of different images, colours, geographic locations, stories colliding together to make the foreground image or portrait which presents itself to the eye.

Craig J Frost
After completing our own fine art diploma here at Anteros in 2020, Craig decided to take on a studio space so he could continue to focus on his creative work. He graduated from a master’s degree in art history from the UEA in 2018 where he specialised in 20th century art, philosophy and politics.
Picking up on themes he researched during his MA, Craig’s work focusses on the built environment and how we interact with this space. He is fascinated but those areas of the city which are often overlooked or unseen, something he refers to as the ‘urban void’. He’s interested in how our movement around the built environment is presupposed according to a range of systems and rules and the sometimes apparently arbitrary designation of ‘public’ or ‘private’ space. He is also interested in the way history and historical events can shape our experience of a given place.
Craig predominantly works with a range of printmaking techniques and enjoys making one-off unique prints, as opposed to multiple editions in a series usually associated with printmaking techniques. He also enjoys experimenting with a range of mediums and materials, from oil paint to concrete. Drawing is central to Craig’s practise and he’ll often use the same drawing over and over in order to simplify his ideas; toward a more abstract and reduced realisation, rather than a strict visual representation of his source material. His work is characterised by a limited use of colour and a lively, graphic quality.​

Julia Cameron
Julia is a photographer who works with two main themes. The first is landscape photography producing evocative, and often almost abstract images that capture the landscape with a fresh perspective. She is passionate about Norfolk, particularly the sparseness of the coast and big skies that make her feel very small and in awe of her surroundings. She mainly takes her landscape photographs in winter, when the skies are delicate greys and there is a cloak of mist across the whole vista or haze on the horizon. Favourite spots are North Norfolk beaches at Holkham and Holme and the wonderfully desolate Breydon Water near Great Yarmouth.
The second strand of her work is the reworking of vintage photographs to produce new, contemporary interpretations. Small original photographs in sepia become large colourful images using a range of photographic techniques. In her current project she is using her own family album and the results will be shown in a solo show in late summer.
Julia has an MA in Public Art and Design from Chelsea College of Art and prior to moving to Norwich in 2001 was a lecturer in Art and Design in Surrey. She exhibits her work in Norfolk, Suffolk, London and Budapest and in 2016 was the winner of the Norfolk Contemporary Art Society Prize for an outstanding work of art. Judges described Julia’s artworks as “quiet elegiac landscape photographs”.

Julia Tooley
Julia is a self-taught artist with a passion for still life. She paints using gouache which she fell in love with a few years ago and has never looked back. She particularly enjoys painting images of food and relishes the challenge of trying to convey all the feelings we associate with a particular plate of food through the medium of paint. She chooses high contrast compositions, often featuring reflective surfaces, where she can play with shadow and light.
She sells prints of her work through her website and Etsy. Please get in touch if you are interested in purchasing an original painting or wish to talk about a commission. Julia lives and works in Norwich and is happy to arrange framing and free local delivery.
