Curated by Jan Hendzel Studio for Staffordshire St, the exhibition will run throughout the 2023 London Design Festival as part of the Southwark Design District, from the 14th - 24th September.

The 11 emerging creative practitioners have been selected from an open call, each one being chosen by one of the 11 established exhibiting artists and designers. The resulting 22 (11:11) exhibitors will then show their work in the gallery for the duration of the exhibition, offering a platform for up-and-coming talent to show their work alongside leading artists and designers to a global audience. The 11 established designers participating in the exhibition are A Rum Fellow, Alison Crowther, Charlotte Kingsnorth, Daniel Schofield, Grain & Knot, Jan Hendzel Studio, Martino Gamper, Novocastrian, Raw Edges, Sedilia, Simone Brewster and Raw Edges.
