Come see Joan Stack's @joan_stack work at the Showcase 2019 The exhibition runs 7/12/12 - 9/01/19 at Six Foot Gallery @sixfootgallery Work featured - "MONDAY" "I am interested in action words. I write several sheets of notes on different topics – sometimes I forget where they are. I identify as a painter although my practice has diversified into installation with desires to make small video works. I am interested in combinations and formal qualities of different materials, things which are weighed down, gloopy, welded together and married in a union which may or may not make sense. Visual drama as well as visual balance are important to me. I create a fiction in physical sculptures and artworks in order to explore a fiction – in doing so am I presenting an idea of the future? Current work and research revolve around this fact: The word ‘real’ can be found in retail. The marketing of reality through retail visual merchandising is something which I explore in my practice. Everything looks good but is ultimately empty, devoid of meaning, a merry-go-round of display, lighting and artifice with fake plants used as a selling tool, merging natural with manmade." #sixfootgallery #glasgow #scotland #contemporaryart #fineart #art

Come see Ashlynn Wardle's work as part of our Showcase 2019 The exhibition runs 7/12/18 - 9/01/19 at Six Foot Gallery @sixfootgallery Work featured - "Briggs I" "Personality serves as the foundation for an individual’s behaviour and interactions with their surrounding environment. Theorist such as Eysneck, Cattell, Myers, and Briggs have developed traits used to categorize and improve understanding of personality. Interested in underpinnings of personality, my work examines how the traits perceived to make individuals unique are shared with so many others. Through collage and the printmaking process, portraits were created showing the overlap of these unique yet communal qualities. The audience’s interaction with the artwork highlights the limited and varying insight an outsider experiences when assessing someone’s personality." #sixfootgallery #glasgow #scotland #portrait #print #printmaking

Come see Adam Boyd’s work as part of our Showcase 2019! @adamb0yd The exhibition runs 7.12.18-9.1.19 at Six Foot Gallery @sixfootgallery Work featured - “The Truth Slithers Away into Cracks” “My enduring interests revolve around contemporary and historic art, cinema and technology. Over the last two years I have lived with my elderly grandmother who suffers from Macular Degeneration, a condition which results in blurred or no vision in the centre of the visual field. This experience has empathetically started to filter into my recent work. The filmic language of science-fiction, digital post-production protocols and clinical endoscopy have been conflated in recent paintings. The collision of this content seems to be acting as a vehicle that allows me to examine human frailty, hero culture and my own open-ended relationship to systems of belief.” #sixfootgallery #glasgow #scotland #contemporaryart #adamboyd #oilpainting #fineart #illustration #sciencefiction #portrait #medicalart #maculardegeneration
