We are pleased to invite you back to the Moving Gallery. Our programme continues with ‘Spare Room’ an exhibition of work by London based artists Mary Ramsden and Philip Ewe.Ewe presents new work; vases sculpted and arranged with card, watercolours, flowers and paint water.Ramsden utilises painting as a site of fantasy, working on small self-contained canvases that are of human proportions. Her work is about the act of painting as a private performance that strives to override anything decorative or sentimental. Snaking lines of paint interrupt spatial arrangements and flat planes of colour. Shapes emerge and then destroy each other in a constant flux that never fully resolves itself. The paintings should allow for the viewer to sidetrack a habitual perception and to give up ones longing for compositional harmonies so as to see an internal dynamism flourish.
