Futures is the RHA’s annual showcase highlighting artists who are not so much emerging as emerged and around whom “exists a growing critical and curatorial consensus”. This year, six artists feature.

UK-born, Dublin-based Lucy Andrews makes quirky sculptural installations from found objects, “domestic detritus and various household liquids”.

There’s humour and wistfulness in Peter Burns’s miniature worlds and characters in paintings and three-dimensional works.

Caoimhe Kilfeather makes ambiguous or anxious objects that are half-familiar but never quite classifiable.

New York-born Ed Miliano kept a diary in paint, charting his garden through a year of subtle and dramatic shifts.

Californian Jim Ricks is perhaps best known for his Bouncy Dolmen, a typically jokey and iconoclastic project.

Finally, Canadian Stephanie Rowe makes small, meticulous paintings based on film stills (above).
