ArtEvol 2025: Voices from the Undefined

London Art Collective (LAC) recently concluded its yearly major exhibition ArtEvol 2025: Voices from the Undefined at Saatchi Gallery, curated by Nelson Qin. Presented in a salon-style curation featuring nearly 80 works, including painting, sculpture, experimental moving image, ceramics, and hybrid installations, the exhibition sought to explore its theme in bold and innovative ways, highlighting works that were both avant-garde and deliberately open-ended. The word “EVOL” suggested reversal and renewal, with art reshaping its own possibilities in moments of uncertainty and change. Drawing on ideas from cybernetics (feedback, adaptation, and open systems), the works in this exhibition demonstrated how artists responded to their environments and the times they lived in. The opening night drew an engaged and appreciative audience, including artists, art critics, curators, and collectors, with lively discussions and an atmosphere of exchange, reflecting the exhibition’s ethos of dialogue and engagement across disciplines and practices. ArtEvol 2025: Voices from the Undefined further highlighted the transformative possibilities of art in moments of uncertainty, illustrating how artists working across disciplines and identities develop practices that both challenge conventions and open new paths for creative inquiry. ArtEvol 2025: Voices from the Undefined concluded as a significant exhibition for LAC, reaffirming the collective’s commitment to nurturing experimental practices and amplifying emerging voices. By spotlighting works that were open-ended, innovative, and challenging, the exhibition offered audiences a nuanced perspective on the evolving landscape of contemporary art in London and beyond.
