Artist statement:
It fascinates me how obsessed people get, particularly women over their fashion and the accessories to their outfits such as handbag, shoes etc. Many 100’s of pounds are spent on many 100’s of accessories which are collected, cared for and loved as a possession. Magazines are packed full of the temptations of each seasons must haves, shops are full to bursting with many shops specifically tailored for just accessories. Continue Reading »

Across a range of different mediums, including painting, sculpture, sound, and video, ‘Girls at Gold’ is an exhibition that not only exemplifies the potential success of working together, but also shows off the talent and quality of work that is produced by women artists across both art colleges.
Featuring four Camberwell students Julie Bennett, Rosie Carr, Laura Davies and Meghan Heinl-Rimmer.
Plus four Goldsmiths students Jo Allen, Tatiana Baskakova, Jo Harrison and Terri Newman.

This Autumn’s Tuesday evening lecture series – The Canvas Ceiling, starting on January 12th, includes: An Unsuitable Job for a Woman? ; Frida Kahlo – a life on canvas ; Art and the F-Word: Feminism ; Modern Mothers ; Georgia O’Keeffe ; “Mad Tracey from Margate”
This series examines the involvement of women in art, not as models to be painted by men for men, but as significant artists in their own right. From the 17th century to the early 20th, female artists were very much in the minority. Two women were amongst the founder members of the Royal Academy in 1768, but it was 168 years before another woman was permitted to add ‘RA’ to her name.
