Process and Performance - Whitstable Satellite event

The instructions were as advertised:

This year Jennifer Wright invites you to enter into her garden studio to participate in creating an ever-changing narrative using words and objects.

Each person will be asked to add or take away/replace one image, word or object.

An overall, brushes and an acrylic paint solution will be provided though paint will be only one of the options.

A selection of objects will be available.

A contained area of floor space will also be used.

Ted Hughes book ‘Crow’ will be available as a word pool.  (it was not used much)

Whitstable Biennale Satellite programme

As part of this years Whitstable Biennale Satellite program I have created an event. http://satellite.whitstablebiennale.com/project/process-and-performance/

Prints etc.

Catching up on my blog after having to take a brief health break.

There are two veins in my working practice. They fall into the

categories of Conceptual assemblage and Printmaking.

In this exhibition I have focused on the printmaking aspect of my

artistic practice. The linocut trees highlight my interest and love for

trees and are part of a larger project that I hope to complete in a

few years time. The silkscreen works relate to my fine art practice

that revolves around creating a narrative that responds to a

situation, a subject or an environment.

After a break from lino printing and my trees I have got back on track to do this linocut of a Walnut tree… more to come!

Tree prints

Last winter I drew different trees and since then I have been making lino cuts of these drawings. I now have fourteen. With winter coming it is time to get drawing again as I have an ambitious plan for a final piece in a couple of years time.

Pandora's Box exhibition.

This piece below was made for this group show. The final piece is a giclee print. The second piece is an installation. (the framed image in the right has been removed and is installed as planned on the other side of the gallery).

Studio update

Art Jumble Sale at Limbo

Limbo put out a call to associate members to rent a stall in the project space to sell unwanted studio materials, tools etc and old work. This ran parallel to the artists car boot fair at Turner Contemporary. I participated with some casting materials, an old projector, some other unwanted equipment from Uni days as well as a small table with old silkscreen artist proofs I included one or two good bargain prints! 

It was an interesting and really creative event with a performative element.
