London Exhibition,' Bells From The Deep' at the Hundred Years Gallery

My latest exhibition of work includes three recent pieces, Forgotten Tree, Apotropaic Trees and The Other Tree Sunset to be shown in London at the Hundred Years Gallery.

Apotropaic Trees
 
Forgotten Tree
 
 
The Other Tree Sunset
 

It takes place at the Hundred Years Gallery in London, 13 Pearson Street, London E2 8JD.  Here are are the details.

1.Bad-Dad-Jem-Negus‘Bells from the Deep’ is a title borrowed from one of the great Werner Herzog’s documentaries which dives in the profound spirituality and superstition in Russia. For our Open Call we aim to ring the deep bells of the artists, searching for the spontaneity of drawing and the dedication of craft printing, as an intimate and direct expression of the artist’s inner force, whether this one comes from the so common overwhelming social struggles, life’s uncertainty and beauty, fears, or just simply their personal, spiritual or not, themes.

During the ‘Bells From The Deep’ exhibition the gallery basement will turn into a drawing room open to everyone who wants to use it as an improvised studio. We will also ask the audience to participate in a series of events organized with the artists and to vote for their favourites. The 8 most voted artists will be exhibited in a Hundred Years Gallery Group Show during 2016 organized and curated by the Director Montse Gallego.

Manchester Autistic Show

It's been a while since I posted due to unbelievable levels of work (which) will continue so until later in July.  I took a morning off from my work commitments to attend the Manchester Autism Show.  I spend a couple of hours drawing in public as part of the Artism art group (which supports artists, in particular autistic artists).   This is a pretty rare occurrence because I really cannot stand doing my art in front of people.  Here evidence of my efforts.
