TRANSITION GALLERY

Transition is pleased to announce that they will be participating in the first Sluice Art Fair. Transition Gallery is an independent and innovative, artist-run, London-based gallery and publisher founded by artist Cathy Lomax in 2002. The gallery shows work by both emerging and established contemporary artists as well as producing publications and periodicals such as Arty and Garageland.


STRIP

For Sluice Transition is showing Strip, an exhibition made up of groups of specially selected 2D works by a number of artists including Emma Talbot, Annabel Dover, Cathy Lomax presented with a distinct nod towards the filmstrip.

All of the artists featured in Strip employ a sequential approach to their varying subject matter. But although each ‘strip’ is composed of works made in a series, adjoining frames do not necessarily correspond to each other. There are in fact no traditional narrative structures; instead it is for the viewer to create their own connectivity.

In her essay for the Transition publication About Painting Alli Sharma identifies the ‘importance of a process to picture making, rather than simply an end result’. Forsaking the idea of the grand gesture, the Strip artists are dissatisfied with the stand alone masterwork, the single dumb painting made to hang on some ever decreasing rich patron's wall. Furthermore with the huge abundance of easily available digital imagery there is just so much more to paint and draw and not enough time to spend labouring on one image. The Strip artists are restless and resourceful, with their minds jump cutting from one thing to another. It is the actuality of the process which is the receptacle that holds and binds these multi-faceted back-stories together.

In Mark Cousin’s The Story of Film: An Odessy film is described as ‘an image bank to flick back and forth to in our imaginations’ and it is this metaphor of a ‘clicking machine’ that mirrors the work on show in Strip.

GHost CLHub


Artwork by Sarah Doyle

I have a painting in GHost CLHub curated by Sarah Sparkes and Ricarda Vidal at the Folkestone Trienalle hosted The B&B Project Space.
My painting is based on a story from a book called Ghosts Of Shepway written by Paul Harris
The story is about the ghost of a young boy at the Royal Norfolk Hospital:

‘A waitress rushing to and fro from the kitchen to the bar noticed a young boy in brown ragged clothing “like an urchin of Dickens’ time” sitting on the stairs. Twice she passed the boy by who seemed unnaturally still and quiet. When he was still there when coming back from delivering an order she asked if he was alright.

“He started to cry, and looked at me with tears rolling down his cheeks, his eyes were bright blue, and then he just vanished, right there in front of my eyes,” The waitress explained.

And one last thing to think about before home time:
Do you agree with the following statement - The classroom is a mirror, reflecting a society where the majority submits to the perceived superiority of the individual, institution and ultimately the Government.
