Janet Curley Cannon, Welcome to Europe, archival digital print, celebrating the history, cultures and countries of the European Union.

Collecting ephemera is an important part of Joanne’s creative

process. She gathers things, scraps, shopping lists, tickets found

on the street, at a train station, pockets, all of a particular

appearance; discoloured, loved, lost, stained and beautiful.

Pasted found notes or manuscripts are employed because of Joanne’s

anthropological interest in mark-making. Creating ‘accidental art’ forms is

a rule of her compositions. Joanne says: These ‘drawing collages’ are best

compared to the pages of a book, constructed from detailed marks and

materials imploring a need to be held and viewed intimately.

Joanne is based on the Isle of Wight. She has an MA from the Royal College

of Art, and has exhibited in London, Berlin, Rome and the 54th Venice

Biennale. She was featured in an Observer article titled ‘Next generation

turns its back on Emin and Hirst’s conceptual artworks’ in 2011.

Kay Morgan, a purse postcard

Louise Davies, Secret Mountain. Etching, £220. This particular piece comes from sketches that I did whilst in Spain. However, the colours and composition allow the image to be somewhere else. I wanted to evoke the concealed mysteries and secrets that are hidden in the silent Mountains.
