New Vision - September 23rd - October 23rd

PAXTON GLEW Brighton

We are delighted to be announce our Photo Fringe Exhibition from September 23rd - October 23rd with photography by 5 exceptional artists.

Each artist conjures dream-like visions and environments, sometimes populated by figures, sometimes purely landscape. The ethereal is mixed with the modern day, which juxtaposes to represent utopias which are both contemporary and hyper real. 

Rosie Emerson exhibits her Photopolyer Etchings, using her own photography with print making techniques which push the boundaries of print making today.

Join us on October 6th from 6pm for the Brighton Fringe Opening Party. Refreshments will be served, both non alcoholic, plus wine and beers from local legends Dark Star Brewery.

I am pleased to have two prints in this year's Art on a Postcard Winter Auction. The event runs from the 5th to 29th November and is raising money for the Hepatitis C Trust.

My prints Ebony Rose and Dreamers are up for auction.

This auction will focus on The Hepatitis C Trust’s helpline which is staffed entirely by people who have had hepatitis C. The helpline has become a key component in the current Infected Blood Inquiry the largest public enquiry in British history, which was launched to investigate why infected blood products were being used to treat NHS patients prior to 1992.

I was recently interviewed for a new feature from Decorazon Gallery, where they explore the motivation, inspiration & background of their artists.

Below are a few extracts, but you can read the full interview in their mailout and view my updated artist page on their website.

"I feel very fortunate that I come from a creative family.
My parents' house is full of delftware, old books, broken pots and flotsam and jetsam, things salvaged off skips, and handmade gifts.
My father is a cabinet maker and I loved spending time in his workshop discovering secret drawers and compartments in the beautiful old bureaus and desks he was restoring."

"My grandmother Keyna Emerson is also a painter. She attended the Slade School of Art in London just before and just after the second world war, and continues painting, though her dream was to be a set designer. I’ve been thinking of this a lot, whilst looking through her books on set and costume design and making my own theatre maquettes."
