“From entangled concoctions, rise beings from another world. They swim in a joyful accumulation of form and colour. My pieces reconcile the man-made plastic paraphernalia with their organic counterparts, a world where jellyfish has morphed with plastic jewellery, where composted peppers grow neon pink wool yarns and where flower petals grow out of shower puffs. […]

“As flickers of starlight in a constellation of living bodies, the figures in my paintings are solitary, but not alone. The inward moment they are captured in; their form fusing with paint, marks and textures, acts as a portal to spaces behind knowledge, a sensory sea of feeling, a self beneath our belief of the […]

Ed Saye’s exhibition ‘No Promised Land’  at The Foundry Gallery in London showcases a new series of paintings focusing on the architecture of idealism.  These works originate from found photographic images of Modernist houses falling into disrepair and the makeshift homes of hippie communities.  While these two styles of architecture seem to lie at the […]

Wayne Sleeth has been awarded a ‘Mention Spéciale’ by the jury at the Salon Des Beaux Arts International in Thionville, France.

“I am a modern artist working with the old technique of figurative painting. The play between concealing and showing is inherent in the painting technique. Through my choice of subject and motifs I try to highlight this. In my watercolours I play with stress, composition and space. By using the motives and the technique I […]

Resisting categorization, themes of duality and illusion intertwine in the sculptural picture plane of Zoë Hoare’s work. Using cut paper to make sculptural assemblages, Hoare frames the pieces with a veil-like plastic screen. The screen defuses the sculpture beneath and forces it to become two-dimensional. The restrictive palette and seemingly unassuming craftsmanship instead emphases the […]

Diane Rogan’s painting reflects the hidden space in municipal places which she calls ‘Wild Space.’ Wild Space is a philosophical title, embedding ideas between the broad relationships between urban areas, community and – by extension – the concept of belonging. Social politics and psychological states are played out through the language of architecture; broken lines […]

The paintings of Ash Kitchen are abundant in delicacy yet purposefully alluring. Although sharing the same neutral, understated palette and fluid brushstrokes indicative of Michaël Borremans the paintings enact an entirely different focus somewhat more aligned to the pop artists of the 1950s. Indeed, Kitchen is interested in drawing parallels between the world of fine […]
