LYNDA DRAPER, Summon
SUMMON comprises a series of ceramic avatars that grew out of an assortment of domestic souvenirs collected by the artist over many years. These works continue Draper’s investigation into the uncanny and the evocative metaphysical nature of inanimate objects yet they signify a major process and aesthetic departure from her earlier white pieces. These brightly coloured figures and objects, each with a name and unique personality, are familiar yet strange and seemingly possessed with a power to embody the spirits of the departed.
RACHEL COAD, Juncture
Juncture, a particular point in time, is also the term used to describe the transition from one second to the next. The paintings in Rachel Coad’s current body of work examine this theme by merging the expressions observed between two thoughts. By identifying and combining many facets of one moment, Coad’s muted and intense works delve deeper into subconscious thought and uncover an unhindered engagement with the inner-self.
