artsteps | Future Lens 2020 Virtual Exhibition

The Future Lens online exhibition is a creative outcome that comprises original bodies of work from young female creatives of colour who developed and produced photographic works and recorded stories.

The exhibition highlights the individual journeys of the creatives, their families and communities they come from, and consists of compelling, original work that captures the strength, knowledge and power of black, brown and indigenous women.

Currently on display at @coprogallery! @joevaux's solo show "Fever Dreams" unveils a host of new paintings which were created during the 2020 lockdowns. Processing Joe's personal experiences during this time, the exhibition is both dark and hopeful - totally worth a look! Featured: “The Choice Bits” (acrylic on wood panel). Next in-gallery viewing at Copro is this Saturday from 1-5 pm, or by appointments 🌟 ... posted on Instagram - https://instagr.am/p/CQwEhx2odEY/

From the lockdown files  

My earliest quarantine project. A self-portrait about confinement, feeling imprisoned even though surrounded by things I love, staying in one’s bubble, and the sensation of being suspended in time. In some ways spring 2022 seems like the glimmer of hope is finally getting brighter. In other ways it feels like the calm before the storm. I’m entering the season with equal parts trepidation and cautious optimism. The mask mandate was lifted here a while ago, and like everyone else I’m starved for some semblance of normalcy. I know opinions vary, and where you stand is your business [I’m not here to argue], but personally I still don’t feel safe in many indoor spaces (e.g., grocery store aisles) or crowded outdoor venues (e.g., concerts) unless I have a mask at my disposal. Even though I’m vaxed and boosted, masking for some situations is the “new normal” as far as I’m concerned. I’m glad the snow has melted so I can begin entertaining on my patio again, but chairs will remain spaced 6 feet apart while I continue to curb my touchy-feely nature. I’m longing for the day when I no longer feel like I’m endangering the vulnerable people in my life by kissing them on the cheek, or risking my own health by shaking a stranger’s hand. Given that new lockdowns and new variants are still regular news, I feel like that day is still very far away.

⁣ 🎨 Amore e morte⁣ 👨🏼‍🎨 Calcedonio Reina⁣ 🕰 1881⁣ 🖼 Olió su tela⁣ 📐 122 x 152 cm⁣ ⁣ To positively influence my judgment towards this work is not only the fact that it was really in the place where the scene of "Love and Death" is set, or the suggestive Catacombs of the Capuchin Convent in Palermo, Italy. ⁣ But above all it is the originality of its realism and the strong symbolic power hidden behind the apparent normality of the scene: a man and a woman kissing among the coffins and mummies displayed in the catacombs. ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ The short story of a stolen kiss, of a typically youthful goliardic act consumed in an "eversive" way in a sacred place, where it would be forbidden to deal with earthly, carnal joys and it would be more appropriate to reflect on the escatological teaching offered by the environment. ⁣ Perhaps, man and woman are the protagonists of a clandestine love, of an impossible love, without a future: that stolen kiss is a unique opportunity not to be missed.⁣ ⁣ live, believe in existence, kiss passionately, delude yourself for a moment to be immortal, but – memento mori! – do not forget to belong to death, to the dark destiny that awaits you at the bottom of the gallery of life.⁣ ⁣ omnia vincit amor⁣ ⁣ ------⁣⁣ #kiss #kissinart #weareback #kissinginart ⁣#luckytuesday #reina #palermo ⁣⁣⁣⁣ #stayhome #staysafe #thankshealthheroes #quedateencasa #restezcheztoi #lockdownart #art #amor #love (at Museo Civico Castello Ursino) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPSGghwHjUu/?utm_medium=tumblr

Home Studio Set-up [S&CM] [GDC] 12.01.21

This morning Michael Canning asked us to create an inventory of materials we have to hand and to show our home set-up for this Semester during lockdown.

In response, I made this short animation, showing my space and things I’ve found around the house that I could possibly use to create with for any three of my electives.

Music: Bibio - Lover’s Carvings

Great fun this week - its the end of half term ‘Drawing Week’ and all staff are contributing with sessions proposing and demonstrating ways to make art with non traditional media. Here students are being shown how to make zoom portraits with coffee and today building up collages and print and drawing work with newspapers and materials found in the home.
