Naomi Bell - Ratio

Bell graduated from the Glasgow School of Art in 2010 with a First Class Honours Degree in Sculpture, winning the School’s Chairman’s Medal and nominated for the prestigious Newbery medal. She has since shown work as part of the RSA New Contemporaries at the Royal Scottish Academy, and been published in the 2011 Catlin Guide.

This exhibition will combine printed works with sculptural objects, where reactive surfaces make subtle references to themselves as well as the architecture and forms of the gallery itself.

Preview: 14th July, exhibition continues until 13th August

Coloured Matter - Helen Shaddock

Helen Shaddock is a Glasgow based artist who graduated from Glasgow School of Art in 2008. She has exhibited in national and international exhibitions, and her work belongs to a number of public and private collections.

Playfulness lies at the centre of Coloured Matter, together with order, control and process. Despite following a systematic approach, unpredictable results occur throughout the casting process. As the plaster splashes and dribbles, layers merge to create interesting formal relationships; Shaddock’s colourful constructions aim to “capture a sense of the wonderment children experience from the simplest of things.”

Preview: Thursday 9th June 7pm
exhibition continues until 9th July
