Geoff MacCormack

The Geoff MacCormack Collection 

Geoff MacCormack is lifelong friend of David Jones who later became Bowie. From discovering the birth of Rock ’n’ Roll together as 8 year olds, to travelling around the world in the mid seventies, as a band member, on his first major world tour as Ziggy Stardust to the recording of Station to Station album, Geoff took the occasional photograph over a period of three years. The photos were stored away for many years and forgotten about until renowned music photographer Jill Furmanovsky evaluated the importance of the collection aesthetically and historically.

Geoff has toured his images in hugely successful shows in the USA, St Petersburg (Russia) and the UK, including a major show at The Brighton Museum Gallery.

He is the author of 2 books, Station to Station and Rock ’n’ Roll With Me.

Geoff shall be in the gallery everyday for signing from 13th - 17th included

BIRDS AND LANDSCAPES

WITH JEWELLERY BY HELEN WALLACE

Brin Edwards presents a new collection of colourful expressive acrylics and oils of birds and landscapes. His work has a distinctive slightly abstract feel with strong a emphasis on light effects.

As a member of the Society of Wildlife Artists Brin is mainly known for his depictions of the natural world with birds a favourite subject but in recent years he has started to explore landscapes.

“The simple act of just leaving the birds out of the picture has felt liberating in a way and this has taken my work off into some unexpected directions”

Brin will also be showing some highly decorative ceramic bowls and ceramic sculptures of birds alongside beautiful silver jewellery by Helen Wallace which explores natural forms and textures.

Paul Green

Paul Green is a self-taught artist and sculptor.

With a lifelong interest in nature and art, Paul is known for his sculptures of wild birds in the UK and overseas, using only wire and a pair of pliers.

Having watched birds since being a very young child, Paul’s passion eventually led to a career as a nature reserve warden at Minsmere. A passion for art ran alongside his career, as he found inspiration from the birds he was protecting. During lockdown, Paul spent many hours wire sculpting the birds in his garden. This resulted in an appearance on ‘Grayson Perry's Art Club’ and a subsequent invitation to exhibit in Manchester Art Gallery.

“In the Light”

Joe and Tom Davey are a son and father exhibiting together for the very first time.

They are both self-taught, sharing a lifelong passion for painting and drawing.This leads them to experiment with all kinds of media, playing with different mark-making to find fresh means of expression. Working independently from each other, there are still common themes of light, mood and atmosphere that will show through in a shared exhibition space.

Joe is an artist/illustrator perhaps best known locally for his charcoal drawings and monochrome oil paintings.

Tom is an Ipswich-based oil painter who is returning to exhibiting after several years, though he has never stopped painting. His artistic practice has ranged from portraiture to landscapes to abstract work, following inspiration wherever it appears.

Joe Davey

"I'm always on the lookout for moments of remarkable light in everyday settings. I hope to capture something of the motion, texture and magic of real life."

“I’m thrilled to be returning to Artspace for this, my second solo show of 2024. Following the enormous success of my first earlier in the year, I am hugely excited to return with more home-orientated line drawings, recent animal studies, and some new large-scale flower paintings now ready to leave my studio.

Observational drawing is my North Star and at the root of all the work I make.

Fur, Feathers and Fauna

Virginia Dowe-Edwards and Carolyn Hinchliffe 

" Fur, Feathers and Fauna"will be the first time their work has shared gallery space together.

Virginia and Carolyn met while studying for art A-level. Through their shared love of art they forged a friendship that continues more than thirty years on.Together they went on to Ipswich Art School, where they chose different specialist areas; Virginia choosing illustration and sculpture, and Carolyn choosing textiles and printmaking. Despite Virginia moving away from Suffolk and after her degree setting up her business in Warwickshire, the pair remained firm friends. When Virginia moved back to Suffolk, they began to plan their dream of a joint exhibition.

Virginia Dowe-Edwards 

When Virginia was little she had a big tub of plasticine that she loved to model into all kinds of creatures great and small, but especially dogs.  After completing a degree in Ceramics at Wolverhampton University in 1997, Virginia turned a childhood passion into a career.

Over the years she has exhibited in galleries across the country and her work has been sold at art fairs world-wide.

In 2020 Virginia enjoyed taking part in the BBC ONE series ‘Home is where the Art is’, sculpting Scout, a gorgeous deaf and blind lurcher.

“Journeys”

Jill and Seth Draper exhibit together for the first time.

“The exhibition charts the journeys we have both made but in totally different mediums. It shows our mutual interest in all things coastal and the common threads that run through our individual works over the years.

Jill offers some rarely seen landscape embroideries from her personal collection alongside her recent watercolours. 

Seth shows his latest collection of seaside themed automata, sculptures and wall hangings, made from driftwood and recycled materials along with work from throughout his career including some of his early ceramics .

Jill Draper

“After gaining a degree in Printed Textiles, I spent many years using fabric dye and machine embroidery as my mediums for depicting the landscape. I learnt the possibilities and limitations of these, and wanting a change of direction and challenge, have now chosen to concentrate on working in watercolour and water-soluble pencils on paper. 

In both disciplines the process of analysis is the same- working out a sequence of layering to achieve the finished image, and my obsession for detail is undiminished. I have always been fascinated by the textures, patterns, colours and play of light in the landscape and within water, and trying to capture them is my passion.”

Instagram jill.draper.artist

Seth Draper

“I make a mixture of sculptures, wall hangings and automaton inspired by the sea and coastline that I grew up around. My work is made using driftwood, recycled tin cans and any other bits of flotsam and jetsam that I can find. 

 I grew up on the coast in East Anglia and spent many happy days taking in the delights of the seaside; from crabbing at Walberswick to trawling the local beaches for shells, that elusive piece of amber or maybe even a fossil.

Having moved to Cardiff for University my beachcombing continued. I developed a love for the bits of driftwood with flaky paint and gorgeous rusty patina that washed up on the rocky Welsh coastline. At University I began to make my playful ceramic boats. Over the years I have developed my work in driftwood and tin and I am hopefully carrying on that playful theme in my current work.”

 'About Trees' 

Recent works by Lisa Berry

“My artistic journey this year has meandered more than usual. Most of my recent works are semi abstract, atmospheric landscapes, through which I continue to enjoy exploring colour.

If the fire gods permit, there will be a new range of smoke fired ceramic pieces on display at this show too!”

Louise works in oils and mixed media creating abstract and semi abstract paintings on canvas, “that are contemporary, joyful and radiate happiness with colour, pattern and design”. 

Colour is primary and is the singular planned element, the starting point of all her work. With no preconception of theme or content she works freely and spontaneously to build layers of paint, feeling her way through the work until she has achieved a sense of balance, colour and composition.

Each painting is the outcome of many transformations and designed to harness and reveal a real sense of the love of painting that she has. 

It is of course a wonderful bonus when they are appreciated and desired by others.

Contrasts: The Art of Two Halves 

Art of Two Halves is an exhibition that delves into the theme of duality. As a potter and painter, each piece reflects the ebb and flow of our individual journeys, yet we always seem to capture surprising reflections of each other's work. This exhibition shows how two very different approaches to our search for expression, can create a cohesive body of work that resonates with the theme of two halves forming a whole.

This collective exhibition will feature work from over ten distinct artists, each bringing their unique style and specialty to the display. Showcasing the remarkable talent of our team and tutors, the event reflects the inspiration we've gathered from our global travels. The exhibition will include paintings, drawings, and sketchbooks, highlighting the diverse approaches of our gifted tutors and capturing the essence of our adventures.

 This collective display by wildlife enthusiasts, plein air painters, and intrepid travellers is a true celebration of Mary-Anne's achievements over the past three decades. Through this exhibition, we aim to convey what Art Safari means to each of us and to inspire a new generation of wanderers to document the world through their sketchbooks.

About the artists:
Myrna Richmond, having gained a degree in history, returned in her late forties to her first love: art.  She was taught at the University of Staffordshire; her work has been shown in the West Midlands.  This is her first major exhibition in Suffolk.

Tom Richmond studied film and literature at university before becoming a teacher.  He’s interested in everyday landscapes, rubbish and outer space.  He uses photos, paint and found objects to create works that explore those things.

Belinda King trained as painter at St Martins School of Art in London, graduating in 1966. She worked as a printmaker for many years, becoming chairwoman of Gainsborough’s House Print Workshop in Sudbury, before returning to painting.
Her current work is an emotional response to landscape. The images are developed in the studio from very quick pencil field studies, concentrating on the fleeting effects of light and mood at particular moments in time. The paintings are then worked and reworked, pared down and simplified over a period of time.

Her work has been shown in many group and solo exhibitions.

Ceramicist Ann Lee joins up with painters Valerie Armstrong and Colin Slee for their third year running in Artspace Woodbridge.

The Mind’s Eye 2024

Ann Lee

My work reflects the versatility and pleasure of making ceramics. Exploration is what interests me, rather than the practice of making one thing on repeat. My favourite process is hand building.  Each  centimetre demands close physical and visual contact with the vessel.  I pinch, coil, throw and use improvised moulds, the conventional clay or plaster ones or any object from which I can take an impression or use as a ‘slump’.

How to finish the work is an essential dilemma.  I approach the  surface as a blank canvas using glazes and ceramic colours to enhance the form. The results are often surprising, a gift of constant discovery in making ceramics.

Instagram: @potterybyannielee

Valerie Armstrong

Valerie creates her paintings intuitively, building up layers of information in paint, collage, glaze, and mixed media. Her present work is strongly informed by a past career as an art therapist as she explores the stories within dreams and memories for her subject matter.

This is how she describes her process: “my paintings begin with spontaneous play or experimentation, using collage, mark making and textures; as the painting begins to reveal itself, the layering process becomes like a dance. Gradually the history below is revealed as a mysterious suggestion of what might be and what might have been. Finally, as the process nears completion, the pace slows, colours become more refined and the marks, more thoughtful. With music as my muse, I allow the subconscious to direct, and visual stories to emerge; sometimes surprisingly, always truthfully.”

COLIN SLEE

Colin was born in Torquay, Devon in 1946, and attended the Newton Abbott College of Art from 1961 to 1964. He worked as a graphic designer for advertising agencies in Exeter and Bristol until 1982 after which he ran his own design studio for 14 years. In 1996 he moved to Suffolk to continue a career as a fulltime artist.

Colin’s aim is to create an expressive response to the UK environment and to portray an atmospheric and emotional sense of place. During his time in Suffolk, he has been selected to exhibit in group exhibitions in the Home Counties and in the Mall Galleries, London. He currently exhibits regularly with The Suffolk Group of Artists, Ipswich Art Society and at selected local venues.

Welcome to ‘Naturama’

- where three exciting contemporary artists; Jemma Churchill, Tilly Baily and Harriet Memory invite you on a colourful journey through nature's wonders!

Dive into vibrant landscapes, whimsical wildlife illustrations, and stylish still lifes. Get up close and personal with the tiny building blocks of life, from microscopic cells to the grand cycles of life. ‘Naturama’ presents a wider view of our natural world, one that is teeming with vibrancy, wonder, and colour!

Jemma Churchill

The feeling that can be found within a landscape is an intrinsic part of Jemma’s practice. She spends a lot of time sketching outdoors, always looking for the beauty, pattern, and colour within a scene and then uses these sketches to create exaggerated gestures within her art.

This exhibit showcases two separate explorations of nature in her work. Oil painted landscapes, with abstracted perspectives and intricacies of pattern, as well as vibrant ink studies of cells undergoing division. By looking through the microscope and depicting the growth, renewal, and change, her work explores the larger cycle of life and the sublime power of nature.

“This life is fragile and fleeting, so we must try to notice a bit of it’s beauty before we’re gone.”

Instagram @jemma_.art

Tilly Baily

Tilly is an artist and illustrator from Suffolk. Her work is often very bright, playful, and graphic. She takes inspiration from many sources, but mainly from her day-to-day life, whether that’s a vase of flowers, something she’s eaten or drunk, or even from her never-ending wish-list of lovely and expensive objects and clothes (that she neither needs nor can afford), as a way to stop her materialist urges.

In this exhibit her work depicts how nature, in its many forms, will often find its way into our everyday lives.

Instagram - @matildaamaisie

Harriet Memory

Harriet's creative process starts with her fascination with narratives that are taking place in nature all across the world. Her imagination and connection to nature give her the inspiration that drives her art, creating paintings based on feeling, movement and storytelling. She is influenced by the beauty found in marine plants and the intricate relationships between animals, their food and their habitats, creating watercolour paintings that are full of colour and wonder. Harriet hopes that her paintings will serve as a portal to understanding the delicate balance of nature, inspiring people to appreciate and protect it.

WANDERLUST – A Journey Through Imagination and Exploration

Step into a world of Wanderlust with FARO and Pete Hawkins, to embark on a captivating journey filled with curiosity, discovery, and the thrill of exploration.

 Allow yourself to be transported to Rajasthan and Kashmir with FARO where the beauty of block print and embroidery comes alive with intricacy, vibrancy and colour. Block print and embroidery are a testament to India's rich artistic heritage and the creativity of its artisans. They not only celebrate the country's cultural diversity but also serve as a medium for self-expression and storytelling. Through these crafts, artisans continue to create timeless pieces of art that are cherished in our homes.

FARO has used these to create a wide range of products, including clothing, home furnishings, accessories, and more. Whether it's a vibrant table adorned with block prints or an intricately embroidered bedspread, these art forms add a touch of beauty and cultural richness to everyday life.

 Pete Hawkins’ Postage Stamps conjure up images of travel and far-away lands. They are like doorways to another world. This group of paintings is exploring the idea of being one side of a door and being tempted to pass through into the other side. They are like snapshots of a story that is in the middle of being told. Each work of art becomes a portal to another world, evoking a sense of awe and inspiring your own wanderlust.

PAINTINGS AND POTS

Barrie Houghton and Loesje Sanders

Barrie Houghton

'I’ve always spent a very important part of my life walking; all weathers,all seasons. Suffolk seas, skies, heaths, rivers and woods, it's all here.
To capture these days, those moods and memories has become very important to me; impossible?  probably, yet then the paint takes on its own life and together we try, we try....'

 

Loesje Sanders

'I work at the Bluebird Pottery, Sudbourne, Suffolk. I  dont throw, but hand build.  My pots grow out of a preconceived idea,  but I allow the clay to take its own form. The glazes enhance, I hope, the organic nature of the pots.  Barrie and I had our first joint exhibition at Artspace Woodbridge in 2022 and look forward to coming back this year.'

Jane Beaumont is a mixed media artist with a special interest in the medium of collage, which conjures an image of her journey through life – a mosaic of experiences that have challenged and shaped who she is today.  She draws from a rich source of life experiences; as an educator, a play therapist, an interior designer and a trainer of programmes for children and teachers in the world's most vulnerable communities. All this has been woven together onto the canvas of her current abstract art practice. 

Jane believes creativity is core to human flourishing – art can bring us home to ourselves. She creates art that can bring a sense of tangible hope and reminds us of the joy of being alive.

Jane makes vibrant, colourful art, full of risk and soul and always with an undercurrent of playfulness.
