The work of Nathan Eastwood is based around temporarily-occupied, ordinary minimal spaces. Starting from observation of places, objects and materials, this artist captures scenes where people are waiting waiting for something to happen; between one place and another, an in-between state. These poetic paintings record somehow the emptiness of space, an emptiness that denotes the notions of minimalist aesthetic still in a social context. |

Nerys Mathias' practice concentrates upon the troublesome aspects of love: desire and absence.Using photography as a tool to gather evidence the work manifests itself as square images.The draws upon a large scope of literary influence: Roland Barthes "A Lovers Discourse", the love poetry of Jacques Prévert, the plays of Samuel Beckett, and James Joyce's "Dubliners". These writers are concerned with revealing moments, and by concentrating upon discreet moments it is hoped that a larger question is revealed. Solo shows:Hello, The Byre, Pembrokeshire, May 2001

Playing with notions of memory, loss and transience, Nicky Hodge creates paintings of half-remembered landscapes: people isolated on streets, objects remembered from childhood, parts of roof tops and planes fading into backgrounds seem like left over narratives or pieces of lived life passing ‘through’ them. Taking Polaroids in parks and flower beds she deliberately moves her camera to produce blurred images, which are then used as source material for her, idiosyncratic and poignant paintings.
She studied at Central St Martin’s College of Art and lives and works in London. Selected exhibitions include: Sense and Nonsense, Danielle Arnaud, London; Picturesque, Tullie House. |

Nigel Grimmer's practice explores the relationship between public and personal imagery and its influence on the production of identity. An archive of ephemera from popular culture - comic books, action figures, joke shop props, snapshots and film stills - is drawn through his personal narratives and then returned to the public realm. Rendered both strange and familiar, Grimmer presents an alternative to mainstream culture, an acknowledgement of his experience by the conveyance of a unique sensibility, a subculture formed by the selection and editing of this material.
Nigel Grimmer was born in Great Yarmouth in Norfolk. He completed his Masters in Fine Art at Central Saint Martins in 1998. |

Odette England is motivated by photographically exploring the relationship between two prepositions - versus and re - as they relate to memory. Visibility vs. void, interruption vs. continuity, [re]counting, [re]construction.
Memory and dreams have long fascinated England as both a source material and motif. She is particularly interested in their link to identity and geography, and the way in which all four of these facets can simultaneously reflect, misrepresent and complicate a situation. |
