Paintings 2021–2022
Cathy Blanchflower
Organic abstract paintings which explore colour, light and movement to create shifting and intangible spaces. They search for a feeling or presence which cannot be painted directly, but rather revealed within layers and visible structures of paint.
25 June—23 July
Loading
Paul Caporn
A series of 2D and 3D works reflect on the emergence of things; best summed up by the 17th century chemist Antoine-Laurent de Lavoisier: “nothing is created and nothing is destroyed but everything is transformed.” The moment of loading Instagram images and the discarded sprues of plastic model-making take on new life.
13 August—10 September
Mélange
Minaxi May
Commonplace objects are repurposed into ready-made artworks through modification and assemblage. By challenging their inherent meaning the objects are then considered and treasured as abstract sculptures, rather than throwaways, creating relationships that are whimsical, juxtaposed, or humorous and interconnected through colour and shape.
13 August—10 September
Qualiagraph\Qualiagram
Hiroshi Kobayashi
New paintings investigate the idea of time and depth perception, based on digitised photographic images and 3D models. The works examine the relationships between personal memories and commercial products, and how unique objects can be shared in virtual spaces yet maintain their unique qualities.
13 August—10 September
Floe
Stuart Elliott
An installation that instigates a visual conversation about choices and their consequences, from the immediate to those so distant as to be effectively unknowable.
Although there is an overarching sense of barely contained chaos, the placing of the components is also intended to appear controlled, to present a kind of order, a logic even.
