I try to make relations to other things as I create my pictures. A painted room, or an empty space, may offer a new enquiry into the technical framework surrounding architectural constructions, or what could be collapsing structures held together by the nature of the paint. As I translate them into these painterly worlds, they become broken down, rejected, swapped for paint, and re-created as part of the picture making process. |

James Faure Walker has been incorporating the tools of computer graphics into painting since 1988. He works with both physical and digital paint, playing on the contrast between the two, fascinated by what has now become possible. Alongside his visual work he has written on this theme, making the case for understanding digital art as a continuation, an extension of the culture of painting. He studied at St Martins and the Royal College of Art. He has exhibited widely overseas since the seventies, including solo shows in Germany and the USA. In 1998 he won the Golden Plotter at Computerkunst, Germany. In 2002 he was awarded an AHRB Senior Fellowship. He is a Research Fellow at Camberwell, Uni |

The paintings of James McMeakin set him at odds with the world he shrewdly inhabits. Whilst possessing a healthy scepticism towards painting, he is reluctant to buy into the fads and styles that pervade a saturated London art scene. Amidst the milieu of painters chanting 'any old icon', McMeakin opts to satiate his appetite with something less whimsical. His inclination is of an art that deals ostensibly with cultural identity and one which, to a large extent, explores the vagaries and representations of Britishness. |

Paintings by Jana Vojnárová are sensual figurative pictures with iconographic elements.
Figures on her paintings always represent somebody ordinary actual or somebody from her neighborhood. In her live and creative paintings is obvious sense for color and contrast, and that her strength is mainly in clear expression. |

In her recent work Jane has been collaging digital images of the idealised miniature environment of a model village with images taken of the natural world. This subsequent confusion of scale and fragmentation of imagery has lead to many questions concerning our perception of the world. For example what constitutes reality and what the imaginary, can it be fixed or is it a state of flux, what is utopian and what dystopian? Currently living and working in London Jane graduated from the Royal College of Art in 2007 with a Terence Conran Foundation Award and the Tim Mara Prize and was a finalist in the Celeste Art Prize |

Jane Webb graduated in Glass & Fine Art Post Grad certificate, at Central St Martins in 2006.She has been sort listed for the ‘Inspire by Awards’, ‘Pride In the House’ and ‘Future Design Awards’. Including exhibiting at the V&A museum.
Jane works in glass and mixed medias ranging from traditional stained glass,mirror light boxes to recycled computer components.
Her earlier work used traditional stained glass techniques in a contemporary way .And mirrors with stunning lighted imagery. The piece acts as a mirror by day and transforms at night to a powerful light feature for any space. These techniques are still consistent in her private commission work. |

Janet Brown’s work process is one of collecting images from books, magazines and photographs, which are then traced and rearranged on paper to create new fictional narratives. The ideas for the narratives are drawn from dreams, daydreams and stories in the media that report on the darker aspects of humanity: transgressions of war and violence, lovers’ desires and jealousies taken to extremes. Nature features heavily as decoration, but also to mirror the excesses, horror, and sometimes humour of human folly. |

Jefford Horrigan studied at Goldsmiths College. His practice includes not only exhibitions but also more transient ‘situations’ that have taken place throughout the UK and abroad. He makes sculpture, installations, drawings and performances. He rarely tries to reconcile these activities, so the work done in one discipline may not have anything to do with the work made in another. |
