Pride Programme
Celebrate Pride in style at art'otel London Hoxton
This June and July, we’re celebrating Pride with a vibrant programme of art, film, performance, and community across art’otel London Hoxton. From artist Mathijs Hunfeld’s residency and immersive digital art experiences in the gallery, to thought-provoking screenings in our auditorium, wellness workshops, drag life drawing sessions, and a dynamic film shorts festival — our spaces will come alive with creativity, expression, and connection.
Artist In Residence: Mathjis Hunfeld
June’s Artist in Residence is Mathijs Hunfeld – an interdisciplinary artist examining the intersection of fine art and consumer culture, using satire to explore desire, identity, and late capitalist spectacle. His work reimagines every day and branded objects to critique emotional dependency and self-exposure in contemporary culture.
