A still image from Eva Richardson McCrea’s digital video artwork called Rope from 2022. The footage is shot inside a dilapidated room. A dark dado rail runs around the middle of the walls, which are pink below the dado rail and white above it. Water damage and dark mould severely affect the walls and the floor. In the centre of the sparse room, three men, all with light skin, balding hairlines and wearing smart casual clothing, sit around a black, rectangular table. The men are conversing with one another and they each eat takeaway food straight out of its disposable container. A bottle of champagne and glass tumblers are also on the table.

One woman has blonde, shoulder-length, wavy hair and wears a light slip dress. She is smiling and extends one arm back above her head while gleefully stepping forward with the opposite leg. The second woman has shorter, black curly hair, she is leaning forward and is moving her shoulders and arms rhythmically. She is wearing a black knee-length skirt, a black bra top that shows her cleavage, and black high heel sandals. Strings of white pearls are wrapped around her neck and one ankle

A still image from Bassam Al-Sabah’s CGI video artwork called Dissolving beyond the worm moon from 2019. In the centre of the image stands a life-size male figure. He is wearing a red, yellow and black cartoon-style tightly fitting suit complete with facial visor, chest plate, arm armour, a diamond shaped belt, and boots. His feet are apart and his back is arched as he looks upwards. He is standing on a grassy area in the middle of various varieties of trees and bushes. Shadows stretch across the image to reach the figure. The image is completely digitally rendered and is extremely detailed, with individual leaves reflecting sunlight and brown twigs lying amongst the blades of grass.
