Motunrayo Akinola: Knees Kiss Ground
NTU is delighted to present Knees Kiss Ground, a solo exhibition by artist Motunrayo Akinola, which explores faith and belonging through everyday objects.

The exhibition was produced during a six-month residency Motunrayo secured at the South London Gallery (SLG) as part of their Postgraduate Residency scheme. The scheme provides early-career artists with the rare opportunity to produce a new body of work. Knees Kiss Ground was first exhibited at SLG in 2024 and tours to Bonington Gallery in 2025.

Vitrines #26: The Aimless Archive
Hull based The Aimless Archive delivers the 26th installment of NTU Art's Vitrines programme.

The Aimless Archive works across text – conversation – performance – collecting. It questions what is kept and what we is gotten rid of by investigating the processes used to build archives. This approach attempts to be as open and collaborative as it can be. Work often takes the form of a book – a box – a by-product.

The exhibition is available to view until the 8th of March.
