Drawing Whitstable: Feb 26 - March 19, 2010




Hello!

I am a visual artist, living and working in London, but whose heart belongs to the sea. My practice, which is based around observationalline-drawings and often accompanied by text, focuses on the anonymity of the passer-by, the relationships between individuals, the artist, subject and observer, their stories, journeys and perceptions of themselves and each other.

From February 26 to March 19, I will be exploring this obsession out and about in Whitstable - observing, documenting and drawing. I hope that through this I might create a catalogue of daily life in a working seaside town outside of the summer season, with which permanent residents can engage and through which tourists and visitors alike can discover the heart of the community.

As the project progresses, documentation and artworks will be hung in the stairwell of the Horsebridge Arts Centre. Please drop by and check them out - you never know, you may catch a glimpse of yourself!

A list of ‘off-site visit’ dates will be available from the front desk, offering the public an opportunity to discuss the artwork, to actively engage with the creative process and join me for some observational drawing.
