Touch / Screen : Chuck Elliott and Matthew Small at the James Freeman Gallery

Look around you in a public place, and almost everyone will be somewhere else, lost in their own virtual otherwhere. This is the digital future: absent communication. Touch/Screen sets out to look at that gap we fall into between the physical and the virtual, using the work of two very different artists: Matthew Small, a painter of raw tactile portraits of urban youth, and Chuck Elliott, a digital artist who gives structure and colour to the digital ether. Somewhere in between is where we spend an increasing part of our lives – somewhere between touch and the screen.

Beaux Arts Gallery, February 2014

I delivered some new pieces to The Beaux Arts Gallery, Bath, today, for a group show opening next week. Good to see some of Anna Gillespie’s work there, hoping it may remain throughout the show. Opening next week, the show runs for a month or so, and the gallery has fifteen of my pieces on show, or available to view, during the run.

Varnishing Day, RWA Open 2013

I misunderstood the invitation for the RWA’s annual ‘Varnishing Day’ lunch, so sadly missed the artist’s lunch and preview. Made it in with the locals for the opening though. Really pleased to find my work ‘Radial / THREE / pearlescent’ hanging in the main gallery, just across from Anna Gillespie’s fabulous small bronze ‘The Ghost of Summer’.

WGSN 2013

Justin Hammond (director of My Life in Art) has curated an inaugural show of my work at WGSN in central London. For the next three months, their building will be used to showcase five larger works, including Torsion / indigo lacquer and Blast FIRST.

WGSN specialise in forecasting fashion trends for the coming seasons, and as such, we’re hoping there may be some interesting cross pollination between the two disciplines, fashion and fine art, perhaps especially in the area of colour. It’ll be interesting to see what comes out of the project…

RWA Open 2013

Good to have been selected for the Open this year, although, at the time of posting this, it may be ‘selected not hung’. Fingers crossed for a good spot in the galleries.

The RWA Open runs from 24th November to 26th January. More information is available online here http://www.rwa.org.uk/whats-on/events/2013/11/161-annual-open-exhibition-events/

On Paper, James Freeman Gallery

“It is one of the most basic artist’s materials. Sketches, ideas, plans, doodles, prints, photos and phone numbers… they all happen on paper. And so, this September, we are pleased to present a show of eight artists focusing exactly on that. On Paper.” James Freeman 2013
