Razzle: All that Jazz - The Harley Gallery, Wellbeck, Nottinghamshire

Over the last couple of weeks I have participated in a collaborative exhibition Razzle: All that Jazz at The Harley Gallery in Wellbeck, Workshop with artists Craig Fisher and Rob Flint. The exhibition is a two part show entitled ‘If a pair is two, what is three?’ and was initiated by artist run space Primary in Nottingham.

“This collaborative exhibition takes as its starting point ‘Dazzle Camouflage’, with the three artists each employing pattern as a form of pictorial disruption, interruption and spatial collapse. Initially each artist will work site-specifically by making work directly on the gallery walls. Over the duration of the exhibition they will develop work by responding to the space and each other; artworks will butt up against each other, they may be shown on top of each other making individual practices both indistinguishable and jarring. Works within the exhibition will be concealed within the overall dazzle effect of the installation producing interesting juxtapositions and correlations.”

Below are images recording the collaborative process.

The exhibition continues until Sunday 28th February and there is going to be a closing event with discussion and performance from 2-4 pm (refreshments provided).
