Artist search

Concepts What you see depends on your visual intelligence and appetite. I search for new subjects and innovative ways of expressing these. How those subjects look within the frame interests me. I always compose at the time of photographing and print the whole frame. I am interested in how "what I photograph" is transformed by...

My art practice focusses on aspects of both landscape and text, consisting of photographs, moving image, installations, drawings, performance and painting. Working reflexively across different mediums has enabled a visual language to develop that articulates what otherwise may remain remains unseen and unheard. My motivation is to exceed the...

Evans' practice deals with themes such as the sublime within catastrophe, social deprivation and social aesthetic. He features sub groups of society that live and survive on the fringes in contrast to the clean, ordered and consumerist utopia. Displaying people's urban survival strategies, Evans prompts the viewer to re-evaluate their own place,...

My work is a constant enquiry, an incomplete sentence, a phrase articulated through materiality, object and space. It is quiet work, a vocabulary of cast offs, objects, liquids and processes, at times unstable, prone to decay, but familiar to us all. With influences ranging from Eva Hesse's organic minimalism to Watteau’s scenes of...

My sculpture, both on a large and small-scale, centres around the process of casting applied through the media of plaster, concrete and ceramic. Exploiting the convolutions of the process and the interplay between positive and negative, I’ve worked with reversals of original imagery, creating negative indentations on the sculpture’s surface. ...

My work is a mixture of works on paper and site specific installations. I use drawing, printmaking, collage, assemblage and textiles to create largely figurative works that depict everyday objects and places. I like that objects can describe a place, a time, a person or community through the way that they have been used or left. I draw attention...

In my work I construct allegorical settings in order to explore, comment upon and sometimes confront injustice and violence. Although my work has serious intent, I poke fun at myself and use humour, pathos and the unexpected to engage my audience. I have used a range of media, and shown installations, drawings and work in new media. I have...

Paper is a medium, a document a catalyst, a message, a creative act, it transforms for the better or worse, it travels, it is solid in a semi transparent world, it holds value, it proves, it also us to share information and ideas, it sorts us into groups of accepted and rejected, it covers up temporarily, it can be destroyed easily, it is...

I make images with paint, collage, drawing and camera. Work is from observation, directly from life, from drawings, from photographs, from screen images. Self-portraiture is central, partly because I'm simply the observable human figure in what I paint but also, through performance, it allows me to trespass into the worlds of other women and,...

Concepts I am interested in how images speak, in the nuances of visual language and translation from one medium to another.

I assemble collections of selected images which offer connections both familiar and...

Matt Gee's work involves covering, melting, placing, arranging, of spaces and objects as some of the processes involved in the fabrication of my work.There is a concern with the authenticity of materiality, the source of materials, jostling with the modern materialistic demands of human sensory decadent desire, a society that expects, an...

Martyn Cross presents us with a disturbing and weird world, one where joy and innocence appear infected with dark thoughts and actions. Often using the covers of found knitting patterns as his canvas, brightly coloured images of happiness and comfort are disfigured and despoiled so that their subjects find their newly knitted garments covered in...

Motivated by a basic urge to play and create, Diana’s painting is intuitive and visceral, although consideration and planning are part of it too. Other recent work has been driven by an attraction to materials, and their colour and texture. Often inspired by fabrics and having a background in tile-making, her work feels very akin to...

Concepts Through painting, drawing, collage and cardboard constructions my current work develops an ongoing interest in visual perception where foregrounds and backgrounds hold an ambiguous relationship to create certain levels of flatness. I question what is negative space when it is given priority? Does it still remain negative when it is the...
