Sydnie & Hayley Jimenez's "Right On Time."
Currently on view at Moosey Norwich in Norwich, England is artistic duo Sydnie & Hayley Jimenez's exhibition, "Right On Time."
This collection of ceramic sculptures, ceramic paintings, and multimedia drawings draws on memories of Sydnie and Haylie’s experiences with friends and found families. Clay is chosen as a medium for its universally ancient history and its unpredictable qualities. Each work draws directly or indirectly from specific memories that they have recalled with various friends in Chicago and the american south, creating certain nostalgic and expressive imagery.
“The title “Right on Time” comes from the acronym ROT, something that has become a symbolic representation of longevity and family within our friends in Chattanooga, Tennessee, but also encompasses the community and care found among queer and BIPOC friends in Chicago. Often as black and brown femmes, our actions of navigating what deadlines should be met and when as well as comments/concerns of how quickly or how slowly “life” is moving is often policed based on societal expectations; we view “Right on Time” as a sort of motto or lifestyle where we are where we’re meant to be.” Sydnie and Haylie tell us.

29/04/19 : RESEARCH - Local galleries in Norwich i could potentially show my work/ take part in an exhibition in
Nunns Yard Gallery, 23 St Augustine St
East Gallery (Norwich University of The Arts), St Andrews Street
OUTPOST, 10B Wesnum St
Stew Gallery and Studio, 40 Fishergate
Fairhurst, Bedford St
Castle Fine Art, 13 Back Of The Inns
Norwich Arts Center, 51 St Benedicts St
Moosey Art, Capitol House, Heigham St
Anteros, 11-15 Fye Bridge St
The Undercroft, St Peters St
Studio 20, Wensum St
These Gallery spaces are the ones most local/accessible to me living in Norwich. I intend on curating a show in my 3rd year of university with some of my fellow fine art students as i feel a stand alone show would perhaps be too overwhelming as i have only co-curated one other exhibition during my time as a fine artist (2017, Fresh, The Undercroft Gallery, Norwich).

The Jennifer Davey Memorial Fine Art Award.
I have been shortlisted to apply for The Jennifer Davey Memorial Fine Art Award. Below is a statement of what I have included within my application. 
I have always felt that money has become such a limitation for my practice due to the high cost of materials. Since becoming more confident using oil paints I have had the desire to paint large using my own stretched canvases however money has withheld me from doing so. Fortunately, I was asked to take part in a large exhibition held at Moosey Art Gallery in Norwich over the summer of 2016. This encouraged myself as an artist to think more about my professional practice. I decided to make a website displaying my work, exhibitions and contact information for the public to view, along with business cards. If I was to win the Jennifer Davey Memorial Award for Fine Art I would use to the money to help fund my own online shop alongside my website which would have my own prints of my paintings to sell online. The last year I have been getting an increasing amount of interest from my work from social media which has driven my practice even more. For my degree show I aim to paint two large scale oil paintings which would be on stretched canvas. As well as selling my own screen prints of my paintings for university shop. This would be a great opportunity to get recognised by the public and to be able to sell my work too. I cannot stress to you how much help and encouragement the award money would do for my professional practice.
Please feel free to take a look at my website with my current work featured at www.yasminsartin.co.uk
Artist statement
Yasmin Sartin explores the theme of identity in a world of continual technological advancement. By working from distorted digital images, Sartin imposes a semi-realist painting style to extend and reconstruct preconceptions of identity. With the influence of the Internet we are able to upload, share and download anything we want with a click of a button. Online imagery has become the source for portraying our identity. Through the act of painting, Sartin strives to recreate portraits involving a sense of technological interference.

Romily Alice’s neon art
After following her work for years and then going quiet, this artist’s work popped up on my instagram feed, this time with neon art. I then discovered her new website with exhibition dates, one being in Norwich in April! (At Moosey Art) It would be amazing to actually talk to her, maybe I could even mention my own work and ideas of including neon glows in my portrait images. Could I take some portraits at the exhibition space with her work? Would need to tame the inner fangirl though. How do you speak professionally to people you admire anyway?
*update* MOSSEY ART GALLERY IS SHUTTING SHOP AND BECOMING A BLOODY FOOD PLACE. I’m so pissed.

Jeremy Shockley's "Daydream Dream Believer."
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Currently on view at Moosey Norwich in Norwich, England is artist Jeremy Shockley's solo exhibition, "Daydream Dream Believer."
In "Daydream Believer," Shockley alludes to the underpaintings on his canvases, exposing the hidden foundations of his work. By incorporating magical realism, he creates surreal yet plausible depictions of the natural world, reminiscent of dreams or distant memories. His artwork evokes a sense of familiarity and estrangement in the viewer.
Employing oil paint on a novel, coarse canvas, Shockley's experimental approach prioritizes attention to detail in an imperfect manner. He often initiates his paintings with gentle vine charcoal strokes before allowing the paint to dictate the composition, resulting in dynamic landscapes, oceans, and skies. As Shockley observes, excessive planning can hinder creativity.
Through trompe l'oeil faces that seem to tear through serene skies, Shockley skillfully constructs a surrealist vision that demands to be seen and comprehended. His work challenges the viewer to explore the uncanny environment that lies at the intersection of the familiar and the enigmatic.

Ant Hamlyn’s “Tread Softly.”
Currently on view at Moosey Norwich in Norwich, England is artist Ant Hamlyn’s solo exhibition, “Tread Softly.”
Working across a pollination of hand made and digital fabrication processes, Hamlyn’s work delves into our relationship and fluctuating enthusiasm towards contemporary life. Often creating relics from a recognizable yet parallel space, his sculptures include anthropomorphic elements that explore the interplay between hard and soft to create moments of tactility as well as surprise through material and visual obscurity.

Yohta Matsuoka's "Before Dawn."
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Opening on Thursday, March 30th, 2023 at Moosey Norwich in Norwich, England is artist Yohta Matsuoka's sublime solo exhibition, "Before Dawn."
Yohta Matsuoka is a Japanese artist based in Tokyo. He began his artistic career in 2004 through live painting, in an effort to capture the street culture scene of Japan. Drawing on abstract expressionist composition techniques involving patterns and wall painting, Yohta has produced large-scale murals in various places in Japan and overseas with his dynamic and skilful works. Through this series of paintings Matsuoka carefully considers his subjects composition and whether objects can become an entity in their own right, different from their original form.
“When COVID forcefully put a brake on all our social lives, it seemed to me as if the clock stopped ticking; the world has lost its colour. All the wonderful things started to appear monochrome. 
Our daily connections with people seemed to have been lost. Only time seemed to progress, the hours of the clock ticking away in vain. I felt the need to respond in some way to this new colorless, motionless world; the idea came to me of placing one of the simplest objects, a sphere on a blank plane. Next, I placed an apple, a symbol of wisdom. Then I placed a banana, a symbol of Pop Art. Lastly, I placed a stick, a symbol of the first tools used by mankind.
Placing those simple yet symbolic objects generated some kind of reaction within me. And as I observed these objects from afar, I started to see a human face in the positioning of the objects. It became something like a reminder that this is Before Dawn; that the sun would soon rise once again in a world where in which time had stopped and the colour had drained away.
By applying this pre-dawn time stamp to a world wherein time had ceased to exist, the darkness slowly started to fade to light, reminding me of a starry night sky. The sphere came alive; playful with a mind of its own. The remnants of the old have slowly begun to regain color. The new world is now moving forward to a new day that is filled with hope once again.”

Yudai Nishi's "Moment."
Currently on view at Moosey Norwich in Norwich, England is artist Yudai Nishi's solo exhibition, "Moment."
Nishi has centered his focus around his deconstruction of ordinary everyday ‘objects’. Utilizing the use of bold, black rhythmic lines, contrasting against carefully chosen flat, vivid color, Nishi creates his striking signature style. succeeding in his efforts to captivate and “swallow the vision of the audience” in order to leave them with a lingering heir of dèja vu.
"I emphasize black lines in my paintings because they can only be found in the 2-dimensional world," Nishi says. "As a painter, I am always seeking unique expressions within the 2-dimensional world and I want to use black lines to illustrate something that only exists in that world, something that’s out of our world.”

Heidi Ukkonen & Lysandre Begijn.
A selection of works from artist Heidi Ukkonen & Lysandre Begijn that were recently on view in “Suspirium” at Moosey Norwich in Norwich, England.
The title “Suspirium” refers to a deep breath or sigh, in this case perhaps, a sigh of relief or existential boredom. Taken from the Thom Yorke song of the same name, the works maintain the same sombre mood of the track. “If you look at my masks or faces, they are all sad, bored, anxious, bewildered and I think ‘suspirium’ fits the works very well.. It's like a state of mind of our generation, a mirror,” Lysandre Begijn tells us. We’re greeted unavoidably by her woefully sad faces, their tiny high-pitched wails for help or salvation almost audible as you get close enough to see their pained expressions. Hair or foliage, roots maybe, fall beside their faces, mirroring the tears, anguished brows and pursed lips, anchoring them to their distress. Given the anxiety of the modern world - global pandemics, inflated living costs and impending world wars - it’s easy to sympathize with them.

“Things That Go Bump In The Night.”
Ben Cabral and Griffin Goodman offer up a duo exhibition diving into childhood memories, traumas and nostalgia through densely referenced imagery and history.  “Things that Go Bump in the Night” opens Thursday, June 23rd, 2022 at Moosey Norwich in Norwich, England.
Often humorous and sometimes unsettling, the show takes us back to our pre-teen bedrooms, the lights off, trying not to be scared of the commotion happening in the darkness. “We worked on the same size surfaces to bring cohesion to the show and dealt with similar themes that connect the work closely. This exhibition centers around childhood trauma, boyhood, our childhood bedrooms, and pop culture from when we were kids. Such experiences are behind the formation of the expression "things that go bump in the night," which refers to ghosts or other supernatural beings that are believed to be the source of frightening, unexplainable noises heard at night,” Griffin Goodman tells us.
On his process for this exhibition Ben Cabral says, “in the early days of pandemic lockdown, due to limited studio and materials access at this time, I began painting with a monochrome palette. For this show I wanted to return to that way of making in an expanded way, and consider what can be accomplished with this more constrained approach. I utilized the visual language of children’s media – books, movies, tv shows, and video games – where scary things never actually pose a serious threat. I want to draw on the nostalgia of that cozy spooky feeling of reading with a flashlight under the covers, just a little too scared to sleep, but knowing everything is going to be alright.”

Fred Smith’s “Night City.”
Currently on view until September 10th, 2022 at Moosey Norwich in Norwich, England is artist Fred Smith’s solo exhibition, “Night City.”
North Carolina based artist Fred Smith invites us into his parallel universe: “Night City.” A dimly lit world we’re only offered a glimpse into, through a gap in the fence, a keyhole or a smashed window. Multiple characters appear and reappear throughout the works, but it’s never clear who we’re supposed to trust.
This ambiguity is central to the exhibition, where good and bad, innocent and guilty are open to differing voices. Seedy characters wielding knives in trench coats and hats, hide their faces in the shadows of their garments, revealing only an intense stare. It’s never clear if they’re villain or detective, perhaps a morally skewed vigilante. “This kind of narrative in flux,” Fred explains, “where multiple people viewing the same situation would all be free to have different opinions and interpretations - I think for me, the open ended nature and accessibility to it, that’s most important,”

Alex Chien’s “My Life As A Dog.”
Opening tonight - Thursday, May 26th, 2022 - at Moosey Norwich in Norwich, England is artist Alex Chien’s solo exhibition, “My Life As A Dog.”
The world Alex Chien’s dog and dinosaur characters live in is one of nostalgia for the adventure-driven phantasmagoria of children’s cartoons. Chien combines a graphic realism with the infantile playfulness and humor of cartoon tv shows - where pain, gravity and consequence don’t feature.
