Non-Member's Members Club (The NMMC) is a project that seeks to challenge past, present and future inequalities.
Founded to explore and challenge societal inequality through art and collaboration we aim to grow a community of people engaged and inspired to use their voice to raise awareness on issues of inequality and exclusion.

The first project in this ongoing exploration draws on personal experience growing up as multi-racial in 80's Britain.
Reclaiming the divisive and often triggering ‘Golliwog’ character this project challenges opinions on current and past cultural racism.
Accepted and often cherished at the time but now considered a derided symbol of racist oppression, the ‘cancelling’ of the Golliwog from history raises questions about a repression of past injustices rather than an acceptance of culpability by those responsible.
Inspired by the often-cited statement ‘I Don’t See Colour’, the character demands you see colour as he is transformed into a kaleidoscopic and celebratory array of different hues.

‘Colour By Statistics’ challenges the viewer to imagine their own interpretation of a monochrome version of the character.

We have created screen-prints of 'Colour By Statistics' and NFT editions of both 'I Don't See Colour' and 'Colour By Statistics'. While this format has come under criticism due to its commodification by wealthy crypto investors we believe in the future of digital art and will be gifting the edition over the coming weeks, with these NFTs acting as 'Non-Membership' to the Club and will grant the holder future Hit and Run digital access.
