Clark’s paintings are populated with images of vaguely remembered holiday exploits of family groups; sketchy staged bodies in sports gear and action; and the burning clarity of gaudy hallucinated Lidos. Tableaux of organised leisure, they trigger historical associations with sports culture in the period of modernism after World War I, and critically engage with the related concept of ‘utopia’. He lives and works in London and studied at the Royal College of Art and Brighton Polytechnic. In1994 he won the Atlantis European Prize. Selected exhibitions include: 2004 James Coleman Gallery, London; Aspex Gallery, Portsmouth. 2003 Jerwood Drawing Prize. 2002 John Moores 22 |

Justin Coombes makes colour photographs by projecting images onto buildings and interiors at night with a small slide-projector. In real time, the naked eye can hardly discern an image, but Coombes photographs these scenes using long exposures.
Justin Coombes was born in 1977. As well as photography and video, his work uses performance and drawing. He has exhibited extensively in London and abroad and recently won the prestigious BOC Group Emerging Artist Award 2005.
He studied at Goldsmiths College, University of London and The Ruskin School of Drawing & Fine Art, University of Oxford |

Maelzer’s work explores the existential anxiety and epic beauty found in everyday life- in interiors cluttered with photographs, tokens, utility objects and memorabilia; buildings to be demolished and environmental disasters. Inspired by David Lynch and Jeff Wall, she uses filmic devices- narrative scale and lighting in her paintings and photographic work, to create highly charged scenarios. She lives and works in London and studied at Central St. Martin’s and Royal College of Art. In 2004 she was awarded an Abbey Fellowship at the British School at Rome, Italy. Selected exhibitions include: 2005: The Valley, Bloomberg Space, London. 2004: John Moores 23, Walker, Liverpool |
