OPENING THIS WEEK!
You are invited to the private view this Thursday 30th April 7-10pm
I have made my first A1 size cyanotypes for this open studio exhibition which consider the potential effect of plastics to our bodies through the embodiment of water plastic & light. I am exhibiting a grouping of 3 prints called Breathe it, Pump it, Nuture it on watercolour paper. Here is a sneaky peek of one of therm in my studio mid process:
Old School Studios joins the Kemptown Trail as part of @artistsopenhouses during Brighton Festival.

They have been working hard behind the scenes to bring this historic building back to life (it was the Steiner school) and we're ready to open the doors for our first ever Open House.
Across the first four weekends and bank holidays in May, explore artists' studios and a group exhibition, featuring work from members of Artcore, the Mutoid Waste Company and me a guest artist, alongside workshops, performances and DJs.

Tide and Place
This weekend 2nd & 3rd of May from 11 AM until 5 PM.
I will be there Sunday all day if you would like to come say hello. No need to pre-book your visit.
What a great private view last Friday night, it was lovely to see so many of you! over 200 people came to look at the show and talk about the good work that Sussex Bay are doing.
Also open Fridays by appointment:
WRAP and Sussex Bay have partnered with local artists under the banner ‘Sussex Bay Creates’ to demonstrate the ability of art to bring us together to learn, explore and experience, resulting in a programme of curated exhibitions and responses.
'Tide and Place' explores how we interact, inhabit, narrate and think of the marine environment, both individually and on a collective scale. In the middle of the Anthropocene crisis, how can we reinforce our position as part of nature, rather than apart from it? The exhibition will reflect a variety of mediums, practices and community initiatives, resulting in a dynamic conversation between the self and the sea.
Participating Artists:
Andy Ash, Lia Bottanelli, Lucinda Button, Ainoa Burgos Gonzalez, Laura Callaghan, Josh Fletcher, Hugh Fox, Nina Garstang, Alan Gignoux, Ella Husbands, Clara Loeblova, Kate Mc Minnies, Norman Miller, Simon Roberts, Paul Winters, Tolly Robinson, Perdita Sinclair, Carrie Stanley, Elena Stevanoska, Cecilia Volpi Also Featuring:Locate Productions x Purpose Disruptors, BARCO
Sussex Bay leads incredible efforts to protect and enhance our local precious marine and coastal environments. Sussex Bay launched in Brighton in June 2024 and is co-producing a blueprint for seascape recovery over the years ahead, as they build up £50M for nature-led recovery and engage communities around their work.
