Thomas Dane Gallery's stand was organized by artist Anthea Hamilton and includes recent examples of her own work, the work of other gallery artists and a special selection of non-gallery artists. Hamilton's signature approach of considering all aspects of presentation includes a treatment of walls, floor and furniture as well as an unorthodox arrangement of works to create a complete environment in the booth. 

The non-gallery artists in Hamilton’s presentation include Mumtaz Karimjee, Rita Keegan and Nancy Willis. All three of these artists have been active in the UK for many decades and whose, often marginalized, works deal with themes of queer identity, feminism, maternal and domestic experiences or the visibility of Black and South Asian women artists.
