In conjunction with Standpoint Gallery, Hoxton, studio1.1 presents another pre-Xmas extravaganza in which we can all go to hell in a handbasket and come back clicking our heels while bringing our tails and Toto behind us. The onus as ever is upon the viewer to judge.

âE quinci sian le nostre viste sazie'
âAnd let our sight be satisfied with that...' Dante, Inferno canto XVIII
