From the Ground Studio, Sussex England

Protective Soles 01: ReBirth, September 2026

Organised by From The Ground Studio, this group exhibition brought together 28 artists from Sussex and around the globe, exploring what it means to be a young creative today. Ives Long’s work was included for its examination of identity and inherited memory through sculpture, performance, and poetry, reflecting the exhibition’s focus on how young artists understand themselves and their connection to others. 

Poetry

The Formation of the Knot

When a knot forms it entangles everything in its path
Growing bigger by consumption
At its start it’s a single thread
Solitude...

Science says we are all made up of vibrating strands
But what if mine is tangled
Can I undo it myself?
Can I do it myself?
Can I undo myself?
