Artists from opposite ends of the Grand Union Canal.
That is the full title of a new group exhibition I will be showing work in…
It is a group show of work by artists from our Southall studios, London, and work by artists from in and around Birmingham.
The Grand Union Canal runs alongside the Southall studios at Boeing Way and continues all the way to Gas Street Basin beside the exhibition space.
By using the passage of the canal as a curatorial device, the show brings diverse works together to reflect on the relationship between these two major industrial cities in our post-industrial age.
Departure Foundation, 2nd Floor, 22 Gas Street, Birmingham B1 2JT (2 minutes from Ikon Gallery) see map
Exhibition: 27th April – 29th July 2012. Open Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays 12 – 4pm
Opening event: Friday 27th April, 6.30 – 9pm. www.departurefoundation.com
If you can make it – do! I will blog again when my work is up.

I have designed a men’s range of jewellery under the brand name ‘BRUTAL JEWELLERY‘.
The unconventional says it is:
A modernist jewellery line drawing inspiration from strong brutalist architecture and constructual forms, for a bold statement against todays fabrics.
All pieces have been designed by me, and hand made by Luke Anthony – the jeweller for Velvet Noir (as featured in British Vogue under Best of British). They are plated in silver, then again in antique silver which is rubbed and brushed to bring out small detail.
They are now available to buy at kujishop.co.uk and theunconventional.co.uk
You can see the whole collection on Facebook.
