Darwin’s Finches

Buying presents for the evolution enthusiasts in your life has always been tricky - until now.

Here at Atelier Editions we’ve set out to solve this bizarre gap in the market for Darwin related products.

We’ve just release 5 pin badges featuring the famous finches that proved the theory of evolution. Despite being descended from the same ancestors each islands population of finches evolved differently to suit the conditions and food sources on each Island.

£3.50 each or £10 for 4

BUTTERFLIES, POT AND BOOKS
Nikki Ward
Regular price £420.00

“Once-loved and valued treasures now gather dust and are destined to further decline; books that are damaged or foxed and no longer used for their original purpose, outgrown toys and forgotten treasures. I am imparting in these decaying artefacts a new narrative and a renewed value. Carefully hand-built with scalpel, glue and tweezers, I make my art from found and bought objects from the past. Some are housed in traditional taxidermy boxes, glazed with exhibition anti-reflective glass and framed with authentic passe partout tape. A reaction and a response to the found materials I have chosen to use as I explore transformation and preservation, each piece is wholly unique.”

FELINE GROOVY??

Cats were worshipped as gods in ancient Egypt — and honestly, their status hasn’t dropped much since.

Our next exhibition, Feline Groovy, brings together around 50 artists working across disciplines, all with cats as inspiration. Among them: the stunning watercolours of 出久根育　Iku Dekune, painted from life with her own cats Sabine and Makulka as models.

Join us for the Private View on Thursday 17th September, 6–8pm — the evening before we open to the public — for first pick of some brilliant feline-inspired art.

Feline Groovy: An Exhibition of Cats

We’ve been able to print a few of one of Sarah Young’s most popular prints. But we only have 6 at the moment so if you’d like one you be quick!

Brighton Pavilion is a woodcut print featuring Brighton’s wonderful Regency Pavilion and its’ gardens by night, with hollyhocks, astrantia and foxes. Carved by Sarah and printed in her Brighton studio on her Hunter Penrose etching press. A deep midnight blue ink block is printed over the chine colléd areas, or cut tissues, to create soft and richer colours.
Paper size: 60 x 40 cm.
Edition of 150, numbered, titled and signed by the artist.
