Laura Carroll; Fine Art: Paint

Statement


Looking at decoration and femininity has always been a prevalent theme throughout my work, working with a variety of mixed mediums and materials. My work ranges from drawing and collage to photography (both medium format double exposures and digital work), which I try to bring together through installation based pieces.

Mary Roberts; Art & Design: Paint (Part-Time)


"The shadow or reflection of an object can often be more intriguing than the object itself. They are ephemeral and gone in an instant. My aim is to capture that fleeting moment on camera and transfer it to the canvas." Mary Roberts

"My work involves de-constructing photographs I have taken and translating them into paintings. They contain a sense of space due to layers of juxtaposing images; exploring a relationship between reality and a created world."

Jackie Burke; Fine Art: Paint

Artwork and statement by artist Jackie Burke, who is participating in our upcoming show.



"The visual language of film is used here to prompt discussion on the structures of society. Solidifying imagery that visualizes the unspeakable. These works could be considered conspiratorial, like propaganda. The work invites others into an examination of how we are coerced by the authority of mediated images."
