| Primed 2014 poster.pdf |
I won't bore anyone with a recap of three years at art school. Instead: a snapshot of about one-and-a-half terms worth of painting in my CIT studio space. I believe it must be said that I'd have developed rather significantly and produced many more works, had the institute been friendlier towards my particular painting aspirations (more on this later). But twenty or so paintings for a grad show may be enough - we'll see once they're hung.
Before my last term began, I was privileged with a financial support scholarship (which I treated as an arts grant) from the Mick Young Foundation. Without their help, I couldn't have painted half as much or pushed significantly my painting vocabulary.
Despite updating my online gallery, photographic reproductions hardly ever catch the reality of a heavily textured, painted object. If you're interested in 20th century expressionism and the mischievous and often cruel elements of childhood, I believe the show is worth exploring (and even then, there are thirty other, very different artists exhibiting). Worth mentioning is fellow emerging artist Jillian Pontré and her projection of a sickly and playful makeup-video alongside large cosmetic paintings.
Attached below is the poster for Primed, a contemporary visual arts and jewellery show, running from 4-13 December. Please do share it about if it suits you.
Work is for sale at emerging level prices. Jillian and I will be minding the show on the two Saturdays, if you wish to catch us then!
