Catch the latest installation of painted work by artist Kathy Williams, as she teams up with painter Tim Fawcett at Peer Studios, Ventnor, this weekend.
The artists have new work on show in a bid to open up the visual conversation between painted image and free hanging painted marks.
What to expect
Tim is showcasing five new paintings from the Chair series where he has been exploring the symbolism that chairs have been associated with.
Kathy continues her exploration of creating work defined by place, space and time. In Ventnor, Kathy acknowledges influences of current news on TV, as well as expressing a personally stressful time during the past few weeks. These emotions contribute to a very different set of work.
Take part
Peer Studios will be open 11-4pm on Saturday and Sunday. Meet the artists on Saturday from 2pm, when the public are invited to make their own abstract painted mark on the windows of the gallery and then take photos from your own viewpoint and upload as documentation of the work.
Democratic Act
This follows Kathy’s increasing research of Painting being a Democratic Act, that painting belongs to everyone.
She is fascinated by the fact that everyone will take a different age and paint a different mark, and, when the work is taken down all that is left will be the images from the public.
Where and when
PADA can be viewed from 11am to 4pm Saturday and Sunday at Peer Studios, Pier Street, Ventnor.
