Emily Klima
Echoes of Emily’s previous life as an art director with fashion publications are evident in her mixed media work, with flashes of not only the pages of magazines and newspapers worked into her vibrant canvases, but impeccable composition, pattern and colour arrangement too - these works offer a glimpse of what it feels like to be free to create and innovate with pure passion.
Emily’s work is filled with zest, and an intangible essence that draws you in, that makes you want to drink in all the little details. These are works that fuel your curiosity, and give you the pep talk you need to put your best foot forward!
Duncan Wright
Duncan’s work with mixed media and resin brings to mind old celluloid film reels that have been overexposed - hazy recollections of good days and bad days, all adding up to the crazy thing we call life. These works are full of symbolism, so much so you can almost hear them as your eyes travel across the image…they are full of questions, longing and nostalgia.
Honestly, it’s incredibly difficult for an artist to pack so much into such a small surface area, so bravo to Duncan for achieving all this in such abundance.
Diane Detalle
Diane’s work has a lovely sense of balance - between intention and execution, between her inner world and the world we perceive around us, and in the way she balances colour and composition. There is a wonderful combination of vibrancy and serenity in her work, which I feel can really help the viewer to connect with these pieces.
I’m also a fan of texture on a canvas, and Diane’s work ticks all the boxes for me - impasto, bold and energetic, they pull you in to look for the elegance they have up close.
