Mark Leckey presents two days of sprawling performances by UK based acts, interspersed with works by himself.
SUUTOO is a London-based transdisciplinary artist, composer, DJ, and performance artist whose practice moves fluidly between music, performance and club culture. Rooted in world-building, SUUTOO’s work spans sound, movement, installation, video, and visual material, guided by an ongoing inquiry into transformation, emancipation, transience, and sonic potentialities.
With a presence across experimental art spaces and underground club culture, SUUTOO has presented work at institutions and festivals including HKW for Transmediale (Berlin), Café Oto (London), Haus der Kunst (Munich), South London Gallery, Basel Social Club (Switzerland), Tanzquartier (Vienna), Intonal Festival (Malmö), Woodblocks Festival (Brussels), and frequent appearances at London’s Ormside Projects, among others. Her recorded work includes a remix on Kelela’s critically acclaimed album RAVE:N (The Remixes), and she is one of 30 artists shortlisted for the CIRCA Art Prize 2025.
Her sound sits in the in-between — weaving noise, intimacy, spirituality, and myth into sonic environments and embodied performances that resist fixed meaning. As a DJ, SUUTOO works destructively; breaking tracks apart and stitching them into new forms, driving the dancefloor through cycles of chaos, collapse, and euphoric renewal.
Competition is the music making moniker of Craig Pollard. Based in Newcastle (UK), Competition makes experimental pop music that plays with sparseness and vulnerability, pitched down samples and orchestral programming, crafting songs that build hooks from within their limited materials. Previous Competition releases are available via Slip, Oob and Bleak Spring. Craig also publishes writing on music and art making, with a book of collected essays out via Glasgow’s TGIGITFFY.
