Vice President and Events Convenor, Students’ Association
Josie KO is a Glasgow-based multidisciplinary artist and a graduate of The Glasgow School of Art. Bringing together a kitsch DIY aesthetic full of colour and humour with dark gothic undertones, her work playfully presents narratives which speak towards the Black British experience in a white-dominated environment. By integrating craft practises into her work, she uses its relegated status in the art world to address the identity politics of marginalised groups while simultaneously celebrating the art from these communities that is often left out the canon of art history. As well as her art practise, Josie is also passionate about community work and was head of Intersectional Feminist Society during her time at university.
