Art_house_life @ 35 Madeira Road opens again, with a tour of recent artworks that reflect loss, change & transformation for 7 featured artists.
Albedo Marz: Paintings, Collages
• Enigmata
Medium-scale paintings that are a quiet celebration of the joy & power of love.
• The Winds of Inertia
Small-scale collages that invoke a luminal space between night & day in a world characterised by a pathology of excess, in which historical memory lies in ruins.
• Dream-Blown Borderlands
Large-scale landscapes that are spaces from a broken world, accommodating geography & psyche, history & science, myth & storytelling.
Graham Stewart RA: Paintings, Video,
• A Painting is a Hungry Beast
In Herman Melville’s novel ‘Moby Dick’ he describes an old besmoked painting hanging above a fireplace, so blackened that no one can know with certainty its original subject. Doubt & speculation inevitably fill the void; ‘constantly becoming’ is a quality usually attributed to abstract painting & is perhaps the most alluring of encounters for a painter to present to an audience.
