Chris Agnew explores the construction
and deconstruction of belief systems, through complex drawings and a
self-developed technique of etching into icon panels with intricate painted
details.

in wire, ceramics and mixed media. These intricate and detailed vessels are
first influenced by drawings, when made from tightly constructed wire they take
on a form of their own.
Lesley
Hilling uses recycled wood to create something new from objects that once had a
different life. These constructions, varying in size become artefacts of
memory, preserving recollections and forgotten treasures.
Joanna Mires produces slip cast ceramic
installations exploring ownership, nostalgia and collection. These limited
edition penguins are handmade, each with a different painted transfer.
Through thought provoking design,
Sam Shendi captures
every day displays of human nature and emotions through sculpture, making us
reflect upon our actions.

boxes follow a fascination with the process of the evolution of form. Each box

colour and shape.
Chisel & Mouse use their
enthusiasm and admiration for architecture to
create architectural models of beautiful buildings. Each model is individually crafted
and handmade.
Charlotte Dredge collects and
gathers objects of second hand memories including letters and postcards to
create delicate ceramics with a sense of sentimentality.
Cliona O’Neill likes to doodle and
illustrate song lyrics that float her boat and are constantly swimming in her
head. She also likes screen-printing and the happy accidents it produces.
Mary Dalton explores the
supply and demand bound by society and the basic activities of producing home
grown products through printmaking and drawing.
Louis Masai explores the concept
of human as animal through the painting of anthropomorphised creatures –
adorning them with sentiment, attributes and paraphernalia of the modern world.
David Shillinglaw says that “Life is a
struggle. For everyone. From the smallest insect to the greatest beast, we are
determined by the success we seek, and how, in turn we measure that success.
Each of us experiencing ups and downs. Peaks and troughs. Like a game of snakes
and ladders.”
