Exhibition: This 'Me' of Mine - Ipswich Art Gallery

On Saturday 21st September This 'Me' of Mine opened at Ipswich Art School Gallery. The exhibition continues until 5th January 2014.

I am showing two images from my latest project, The Study of Peter Pan. The full series will be unveiled next month in Peter and David at Four Corners Gallery, London. 

Below are a few photos I took at This 'Me' of Mine Private View.

This ‘Me’ of Mine is a touring contemporary art exhibition which looks at self in relation to context. It will present issues of socialization and the influence of social groups and our connection to objects as a means to express emotion and to hold memories. The passage of time, limitations imposed by circumstance, and the effects of living in a digital age will also be explored. 

Artists include: Aly Helyer, Edd Pearman, Darren Nixon, Hayley Harrison, Melanie Titmuss, Annabel Dover, Kate Murdoch, David Minton, Anthony Boswell, David Riley, Sandra Crisp, Sarah Hervey, Shireen Qureshi, Cathy Lomax, and Jane Boyer. Plus guest artists: Molly Behagg, Edward Chell, Kate Elliott, Suzanne de Emmony, Andrew Litten, Gary Mansfield, Helen Scalway, Lisa Snook, Jacqueline Utley and Kai-Oi Jay Yung. 

The exhibition is curated by Jane Boyer, and supported by the Arts Council, England.

On 2nd November 2-4pm there will be a symposium: Identity in the Digital Age. Click here for more information and to buy tickets.

Cornwall Portraits

Here are some portraits I took last week during a family holiday in Cornwall. I wanted to test out the new formula colour shade Impossible film. 

It was sunny and windy and wet and sandy. Despite the yellowy/cyan cast, I kind of like the results.

Recent commission

Artist Sophie Smallhorn recently commissioned me to document her latest public artwork - a glass canopy linking two buildings in Victoria. 

It is a beautiful piece, which plays with the light, changing throughout the course of the day and interacting with the people below. Here are a few photographs from the shoot.

This ‘Me’ of Mine is an example of ‘distributed practice’, a phrase coined to describe the creative use of diverse networks taking artists beyond the boundaries of traditional art practice. It is a touring contemporary art exhibition which looks at self in relation to context. It presents issues of socialization and the influence of social groups, our connection to objects as a means to express emotion and to hold memories, the passage of time and limitations imposed by circumstance, and the effects of living in a digital age.
Exhibition curated by Jane Boyer.

Duality

Looking through my archive of old images, I came across this photograph of a guy - Dave - I once met.  I still find something about him intriguing...
