We have all been fortunate to make a living out of our passion, art. As our working day closes pressure races to our fingertips ready to merge into a creative frenzy. We are driven by a race against time, deadlines are met daily.
In the Twilight zone exhibition you will see what happens when you let these artists attack large canvases and have free expression. With these artists experiencing different habitats and surroundings this exhibition is surely going to provide a engaging diversity of works.
TIM CLAEYS
Twilight: a zone, one reality taking on another. Where once you held control, you are controlled. The circus arena within us all. Wet, cold paint coming to life as the creator dies a little within.
CHARLOTTE GILLAM
Responsible for our existence and capable of our destruction; comets are surrounded by myths, fears and promises. They are messengers from the formation of the solar system, beautiful looping balls of ice and dust, which may have
brought the essential elements of life to earth. Are these heavenly bodies our distant relatives? Are they harbingers of doom, or could they be the key to a future life in space? Comets captivate me. The many theories and mysteries stemming from them are the stimulus for this series of pictures. They are combines of rescued paper, computer printouts, drawings, found objects and images, stickers, stains, paint and photos.
BEN GOSS
Sunset, moon, streetlights. People, cars, street sounds. The bathroom light, radio, quiet. The best work is done
at night
JUSTIN GARNSWORTHY
Twilight. The last rays of the dying sun inspire me. Hobson's Bay, the flexing black swans, the glowing city across the water, the faces under the streetlights, even the raging oil refinery behind me.
LIONEL POTIER
A full-time teacher and father during the day, night is when I do my freelance work. What keeps me awake? Necessity most definitively, BBC World sometimes, and always the ocean waves clashing on the cliff nearby. Teaching made me concise, being a dad opened my eyes, and when the BBC reminds me that this world is going mad, I just listen to the sound of waves.
