The Show will feature the work of artists, designers & makers establishing themselves as the new generation of creatives. What makes this show stand out is the quality of the exhibitors, many of whom are graduates of the Royal College of Art. The common theme that draws this wide ranging group together is their use of materials in a contemporary context. Featuring Ceramics, Glass, Wood, Metal, Textiles, Collage and Mixed Media, each exhibitor takes influence from their material,
its history and nature to produce their work in a modern environment.
Whilst this is a selling show there is a much broader reason for bringing this group together. All of the selected exhibitors are finding their way through our economic climate, not only trying to survive but to grow, we can all talk about the negatives of starting out in
today’s society as a maker but what we truly need to consider are the
positives and the opportunities that are out there,
what better way to start this discussion and debate than to draw together a positive, successful group of contemporary makers, selected guests and the general public.
So come and see the work, enjoy the show, talk to the Artists, and maybe take something home,
bring an open mind and learn from them as they will from you.
Talks will be held throughout the show call: 020 7739 4921 for further details.
