Marissa Weatherhead’s still life works sit within a delicate balance of abundance and fluidity. Plentiful tables of seafood, flowers, fruits and glasses of wine sit on large tables, accompanied by seaside or interior backdrops.

Marissa’s painting style simplifies her subjects, concentrating on what we know about an object through knowledge and visual understanding. Her exuberant colour palate invigorates her often familiar subjects, celebrating the small luxuries in life. When looking at Marissa’s paintings, we may be reminded of memories from past holidays, or bountiful banquets with loved ones.

Currently on show in the Summer Collection

Martha Winter’s sculptural wall pieces reflect her fascination with the landscape and natural pattern. She keeps compositional elements to a minimum and uses repetition to emphasise the organic ordering of parts to create heavily textured surfaces. Her contemplative pieces highlight the elegance and complexity of mathematical patterns that surround us.

Martha’s process has come from many years of experimenting with materials. She sources various geological materials from either quarries or the other natural resources. The creative process begins by preparing the material, grinding it down or through meticulously separating it out. Using a variety of techniques this 'matter' is then applied onto an armature. Layer upon layer are built up, forming permanent and textural surfaces.

The Summer Collection is a curated group show with new works are added every few weeks for an ever changing presentation. Keep an eye on the website to see what's new!
