Material World @ Cobalt Studios

COBALT STUDIOS PRESENT:

Material World.

This show which opened on the 15th May 2009 was (again) another knock out success. A very different show from Mayday or Proud of our Roots this saw me exhibit alongside some established and starting out artists in the North East: Glass artists Gavin Marshall, Effie Burns and Kathryn Hodgkinson, painter Paul merrick and retired architect turned photographer David Whitton.

The show was more commercially minded with an emphasis on making the work look absolutely stunning, which it did. I exhibited three megaposters; military hardware identification chart #2 weapons of world war 2, and two prints based on the monument and millenium bridge. My theme? Sex and violence of course. The show attracted some 150 people over the weekend and is ongoing. And I sold some!
