I will be presenting new works from the dysfunktional ceramix family collection in a group exhibition at Bristol’s Motorcade/Flashparade. Featuring a tasty offering of work by the following artists:

Laura Cresser
Helen Edling
Anna Flemming
Graham Hutchinson
Peter-Ashley Jackson
Julie McCalden
Sarah Tulloch

Curated by Sarah Tulloch.
mish•mash proudly presents gal•li•mau•fry – a dish made of leftovers.
Thursday 16th February
Pre-preview critique: 6-7pm
Preview: 7pm-late

Exhibition continues:
Friday 17th – Sunday 19th February
12 – 6pm

Come and feast on the delectable delights of an object/image medley created especially for Motorcade/FlashParade.

mish•mash artists collect objects and images with junkshop origins and re-categorize them with a self-imposed logic. We cut, break, fold, fuse, add, subtract and re-arrange. The artists’ treatment of the source material creates a disconcerting undertone to a beguiling and playful world.

The recent exhibition ‘what condition our condition is in’ was a great winter blues buster; both well attended and received. In a break from usual ceramic works I presented two new paintings on found paintings alongside collage-photographic self-portrait work, altered postcards and found books

Back in October I was succesful in my appliaction for AA2A (Artists Access to Art Colleges) at Northumbria University, Newcastle upon Tyne.

The scheme is nationwide and allows artists the opportunity to access an art college in order to use facilities to enhance their work.

The AA2A scheme has a website where other AA2A atists can share images of their work, thoughts and progress on their placement, through blogs, images and message boards. The web site is visible to people who are not on the scheme so they can follow the blog posts of artists.
