Open Studios

Saturday, May 15th, 2010

Last night was the Private View for the Open Studios at 2nd Floor Studios, where I have my studio overlooking the river. A photographer from the local paper, the News Shopper took some shots of me and my most recent painting: Captured Like A Firefly in a Jam-Jar and also my sketch books. One sketch book in particular attracted a lot of attention last night, of New Adventures Swan Lake, drawn last Autumn, it was this sketch book that inspired the above painting, the title came from writer and friend Karen Fielding when describing my drawings.

On Saturday and Sunday the Studios will be open from 11.00 – 5.00.  My studio is 17 Unit 0, I will be there on both days.

 

Sally’s drawings on show in Marylebone

Friday, April 9th, 2010

Seven of my framed drawings are on show at the West End hairdressing salon, Billi Currie at 47 Chiltern Street, London W1U 6LX. Billi is a fantastic stylist, he’s been cutting my hair for the last year, often kindly fitting me in before rushing off to work on a photo shoot. Marcelo does beautiful colour work. The salon has a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere, this is the second time the salon have shown my work.

Youtube Chasing Shadows

Monday, March 22nd, 2010

In May 2009 I had a 6 week solo exhibition, “Chasing Shadows” in the West End gallery GV Art. The gallery commissioned Martin Smith and Alex May of Quadratura to work with me and a dancer to make an audio/visual composition responding to my work. The dancer is Laban 3rd year student Alessandra Ruggeri. .

Quadratura had an event at GV Art on March 1st 2010 celebrating the 50th anniversary of Yves Klein’s Monotone Symphony and his Anthropometries, calling it Monotone Symphony 2010. Using technology, a soundscape composed for the event and live dance from three dancers, Quadratura created a mesmerising show of blue shadows and silhouettes, as the dancers moved the shadows remained, faded and built again where the dancers appeared next.
