Nature: 10 Artists From London

The artists whose work will be exhibited at Kadrioru Gallery in Tallinn  have previously participated in or curated shows in institutions including The Saatchi Gallery, The Royal Academy, Deptford X, The Institute of Contemporary Art, Fitzrovia Chapel, and The Chelsea Arts Club, taught at the best art schools, and organised events at both Tate Britain and Tate Modern. This show is a snap shot of what’s currently happening in the London art scene. Visitors to the Nature show will hopefully delight in seeing both the similarities and contrasts in the work of these artists all united by their love of nature.

Harry Adams makes paintings of the natural world vs the constructs and machinations of man in all their awe, terror and incalculable beauty.

Gordon Beswick is an artist and a freelance film maker. His paintings are informed by the lines, colour and geometric shapes visible in our environment. For this show he will be exhibiting a series of new paintings that began as painterly abstract works which he developed intuitively into imaginary landscapes.

Edie Flowers works in sculpture and drawings to examine the fragility and contradictions of human nature. Drawing and redrawing from life, memory, books, music and the imagination, Edie creates theatrical moments.

Georgia Hayes says her paintings are from an ongoing series on human separation from nature and their exit from the garden which has come with a fascination and longing for the wilderness as they simultaneously destroy it.

Huddie Hamper says he finds painting a pleasure. “My work is intuitive by nature, expressing aspects of my current life and psychological state. I have an urge to create and describing forms in paint feels natural to me. I aim to communicate the beauty – and sometimes darkness – that is in the world around us.”

Corin Johnson hopes his work speaks for itself. He likes to make work about things that excite him sometimes they contain an element of the unseen. Often his sculptures represent human figures and animals but he likes there to be a twist.

Cedar Lewisohn makes drawings and prints as well as curates and writes. For this exhibition he has made a series of images based on nature and abstraction.

Raksha Patel’s paintings explore the imagined landscape where notions of identity merge the natural environment creating spaces that are fantastical,  illusionary and occasionally dystopian. Raksha also works as a lecturer and writer. 

 Harry Pye makes paintings about things he loves to cheer himself up and create a new world to escape into. Often his work is made in collaboration with friends. For the last year he has been making paintings of cows - creatures that some people see as being comic, some see as food, and other people see as sacred.

Suzanne Spiro uses mixed media including embroidery to express her ideas and feelings about the nature of our relationship with the world around us.
