Artist profiles and statements

Karen Gittins

Observation and recording of life and its cycles, the days and seasons, the continual change and development, the light and shadows, shapes and movement, senescence and re-birth, drive and inspire my art. Print making as well as ceramics, photography and painting come together to contribute and enhance the process, each contribute to capturing the choreography of life, which I am honoured to interpret and express in my own way individual way.

Freshmattic

Freshmattic, aka Matt Martin, is a pop artist who dives head first into printing, inks, stencils and spray paint. He smashes together the very best of pop – comix, music, packaging, toys, stickers and clothing – to create one-off pieces for mythical TV shows, toys, movies, games or gigs. They represent culture that might have existed once, but probably would have been cancelled due to unfortunate circumstances.

Nigel Morris

Nigel’s work evolves from abstraction, symmetry and systems, but it also brims with suggestions of threads, plants and microscopic life.

Recent work considers the botanical possibilities pertaining to the climate change effect and an imagined evolution of lichen, fungi and plant life
