Yesterday, through the wonders of technology, a few tiny cats visited another non traditional gallery.
The Open Dresser Gallery is a multi level exhibition space inside a salvaged dresser. It is curated by mixed media artist Sally Eldars who’s current exhibition “Reflections in Time” uses found objects in the dresser to represent some of the compartments in Sally’s mind, giving “space, substance and presence to a thought helping to untangle and process it.”
Tiny cats help you to see your work in a different way. Taking the human element out of it, scaling it up and imagining how it could work if you could walk through it, over it and under it has really helped me take my personal practice to a new level.
Continuing the exhibition of Susan Plover’s ‘A Feast for Your Eyes’ and taking some candid shots of the goings on in the gallery space.
The Instagram account reached 50 followers on the same night as formation dancing practice in the gallery.
The school group was ready to leave but Cedric was missing

and of course there was a straggler
I’m setting up the Tiny Cat Gallery for the preview of ‘A Feast for Your Eyes’ tonight.
The artist wanted a draped background and an ornate frame. The best I could do was a nip to Wilkos and some distressing for the frame but I had some gorgeous faded luxury orange velvet curtains to hand. In fact they have been folded up on a chair for one of the full size cats to sleep on for a while now.
This exhibition is one large (for the gallery) digital print. A 10 x 8 frame takes up almost the full height of the gallery. I decided to open up the short end to take photos so that I can see the artwork taking up a full wall.
This photo shows the outside of the gallery as well, when cropped it looks like a team of technicians moving a large painting.
