Sonya Boyce (b. 1962) is a British-Afro-Caribbean artist living and working in London. Boyce's research interests explore art as a social practice and the critical and contextual debates that arise from this area of study. Boyce has been closely collaborating with other artists since 1990 with a focus on collaborative work, frequently involving improvisation and unplanned performative actions on the part of her collaborators. Boyce's work involves a variety of media, such as drawing, print, photography, video, and sound. Her art explores "the relationship between sound and memory, the dynamics of space, and incorporating the spectator.

Antony Gormley (b. 1950) is a British sculptor known for his exploration of the human body and its relationship to space. His works often use casts of his own body to examine themes of existence, consciousness, and the interaction between individuals and their environments. One of his most famous works is "Angel of the North" (1998), a massive steel sculpture in Gateshead, UK. Other notable projects include "Another Place", a series of iron figures on a beach in Liverpool, and "Event Horizon", where human-like sculptures were placed on rooftops and public spaces in cities worldwide. Gormley frequently works with industrial materials like iron, steel, and concrete, creating both intimate and monumental pieces that engage audiences in thought-provoking ways.

Anish Kapoor (b. 1954) is a British-Indian sculptor known for his innovative and large-scale works that challenge perception and space. In the early 1970s, he moved from Mumbai to London to pursue his artistic education. Kapoor's creative process involves continuous experimentation and risk-taking. His sculptures are both adventures in form and feats of engineering, Kapoor maneuvers between vastly different scales, across numerous bodies of work. He believes in exploring new ideas and materials, and often allows his works to evolve over time, sometimes taking months to decide if a piece is ready for public display. Kapoor's work continues to push boundaries in contemporary sculpture, challenging viewers' perceptions of space, form, and color. His innovative approach and monumental public works have solidified his position as one of the most influential sculptors of his generation.
