Chris Gilvan-Cartwright, AKA The Baron Gilvan.
Chris Gilvan-Cartwright is a graduate from Central Saint Martins (BaHons first class), Academy Fine Art Cracow Poland ( Painting under Prof. Nowosielski), University of Brighton (MA Fine Art) and Turps Banana. He won the Royal Overseas league Travel scholarship where he painted in India and Nepal. On his return he was commissioned to design the BBC Proms logos for two seasons. He has exhibited widely and performed as The Baron Gilvan at the Towner Museum of Contemporary Art and Jerwood Gallery now Hastings Contemporary.
"I draw out the subject using whats at hand, brushes, charcoal, rags and fingers twisting and turning the paintings until images reveal a cliff edge or a space containing bathos and absurdity something both divine and decrepit. I invent painted narratives involving corporeal figures occupying preternatural landscapes and stage sets. They are falling or about to fall apart often in a state of transformation, reverie or catatonic breakdown referencing holy men or hermits drawn from northern European medieval painting."
Chris has a lively Instagram site here, where he regularly posts new works, many of which are for sale.
Lucy Newman
Lucy studied at Chelsea College of Art ( BA Fine Art) and the Royal College of Art (MA Fine Art Printmaking). She is interested in photography, craft techniques, materials and processes and the edge where artificial and natural meet.
Tim Copsey, Wood Fired Ceramics.
"After a long absence I re-engaged with pottery and the immediate muscle memory was emotional and viscerally inspiring. Within a year we'd built a kiln and started a studio, The aim is to forget about 'perfect' form and technique, and embrace chance and investigate functional pottery on a sculptural level."
"The Blossom Vases are made to reflect the landscape here in the Peak District and their names often reference the weather or a landmark. I think of these pieces as blossom vases because they look good with a simple single branch of blossom arrangement."
Tim Copsey has an Instagram site here, where he regularly posts updates on what he's making and the pottery classes and workshops that he holds in a barn on the edge of the Yorkshire Moors.
