Not on White Paper was a group exhibition held at the Malt Cross Gallery, in the centre of Nottingham. It showcased a collection of line based work that side steps the conventional format of drawing. By taking away the limitations of white paper that are ordinarily applied to this medium, the exhibition aimed to broaden the expected perceptions of drawing and elevate its status. Malt Cross Gallery 4th-14th December 2008 (Private View Wednesday 3rd 7-9pm)
‘Drawing is part of our interrelation to our physical environment, recording in and onto it, the presence of the human. It is the means by which we can understand [….] and come to terms with our surroundings as we leave marks, tracks or shadows to mark our passing. Footprints in the snow, breath on a window, vapour trails of a plane across the sky, lines traced by a finger in the sand – we literally draw in and on the material world.’ Dexter, E. 2005.1

Throughout the evening of the launch there was a number of live pieces to look out for, including a tombola event from the mixed media artist Jo Howe who throughout the evening tombolared all her work off to the public for a pound a go, there was also a performance drawing by the installation artist Christina Bryant who encased herself within a white fabric house and recorded the evening through a live trace that emerged on the walls throughout the duration. There was new prints on show by Mary Down, Helena Dowling and Pat Grant. and a shadow puppet show produced by artist Steve Rogers, who invite the audience to get involved. There was a selection of new paintings displayed by Julia Skrebels, Paula Cherry and Janet Reichmann, as well as exciting installations by artist Tricia Bryan throughout, utilising many unexpected spaces around the studios . Also in the exhibition was new work by Mark L’Argent and Anji Archer. It was a lively and stimulating event that kick started the three weeks when the studios were open to the public, as part of the Hertfordshire Visual Arts Forum ‘Open Studio’ event.

Living Space Solo Show, Red Gate Gallery, London ‘Living Space’ was an exhibition that explored the nature of human spaces. Through distorted line drawings, Christina Bryant focused on the nature of our relationship to the home environment. Her central piece, Living Space, looked at the ideas related to representation through a drawing. It extended out from the wall ignoring the physical boundaries of the gallery space. Altering our perception of the space as she emerged the viewer directly within the drawing making them feel aware of how their own movement and positioning affected the way they saw the piece. They were pushed to feel aware of being there, not just as a viewer but as an essential component to the scene’s existence. It was the viewer’s personal memories that allowed it to exist as this space, yet an image that nearly everyone reads with similar knowledge and recognition. We know home to represent safety and warmth but the drawing itself was so far away from being warm and comforting. It was the illusion of the image instead, that held the promise. The whole thing remained a ghostly representation to which the empty gallery space pushed through. For more information http//www.redgategallery.co.uk/studios.html
