Meanwhile Back In the Wick
Having resurrected what was Hackney Wick’s first exhibition space in Queens yard, Prompt Gallery presents it’s debut show “Meanwhile Back In The Wick” which previews on the 14th November, on the 5th floor of Mother Studios.
To reinforce the locations reputation of being one of the most exciting and creative artist communities in the whole of Europe, we are delighted to feature the work of three Wick based artists, Aida, John Atherton and OKO.
Aida and John Atherton left the hustle and bustle of Brick Lane in 2008 in search of a more affordable and less saturated solace, to live and work. Since then, they have progressed individually, with Aida growing as a seminal printmaker and Atherton establishing his business in the area as well as developing his creative practice.
OKO uses the world as her canvas; she has been a permanent fixture in the street art revolution since 2005, traveling extensively, skating or painting her intricately drawn work. Dubbed a “National Treasure” in Croatia and working with clients such as Adidas, we are delighted that she has decided to call Hackney Wick new home.
Prompt Gallery is very excited to be in Hackney Wick and particularly Mother Studios, which forms a community of artists living and working in old industrial buildings on the edge of the Olympic park. Events such as Hackney WickEd and First Thursday have ensured that it remains a hotspot of emerging and established talents.
Our mission as a new gallery is to be involved and work with as many divers disciplines and communities as possible, in particular individuals or groups from Black, Asian and minority ethnic backgrounds.
