Mindy Lee uses a repeated expulsion of paint,fusing layers together into a monstrous hybrid. These forms lure the viewer in through delicate detail.As the surface is infected, disgust and seduction are intertwined through a revelling in squeamishness. Lee lives and works in London. MA Royal College of Art 2002-4. Selected exhibitions:2007 ‘Gyre and Gimble’ Blyth Gallery, London. 2006/7 ‘Salon Connexions’ Contemporary Art Projects, London. |

I work in a process of laying down paint and manipulating it, trying to find a point where the paint becomes pure image yet simultaneously folding back into matter. I am interested in this movement and how it leads not only to a deformation of the image but also of deformation of understanding. Potentially, opening up a space for a different understanding.

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. |
