LINE UP CRAFT EXHIBITION

 


Line Up was an exhibition of contemporary craft curated by Sania Pell held at the newly refurbished Flow Gallery, Notting Hill.

The exhibition explored the relationship between objects; how they combine and interact in styled groupings. Inspiration for the show derived from the collections at Kettle’s Yard, Cambridge, the home where Jim Ede, a former curator at the Tate, avid art collector and promoter of the contemporary artists of his day, pioneered art and craft in a domestic context.

The work selected for the show examines shape, pattern and texture within a monochrome palette. The shapes of the handmade objects are graphic and bold with expressive mark making. Compositions of objects are explored, and still lives created that could be displayed in any home.

Artists included: Akiko Hirai, Astrid Keller, Bettina Dittlmann, Derek Wilson, Dr Tim Willey, Hyu Jin Jo, Kaori Tatebayashi, Nicola Tassie, Jochem de Wit, Silvia K, Theo Adamson and Akiko Hirai.

Sania also produced a series of paintings on canvas especially for the exhibition, to act as a backdrop for her still life compositions.

All of the artworks were available for purchase from Flow Gallery with prices ranging from £45 to £1000.

The exhibition ran from 20th March until 15th May 2015.
