I’ve been thinking about developing a series of people? which can become familiar, and reused in certain situations. Here is a little person in a Beret wrapped up for winter! He has a certain french Art-Deco feel to him, I have been inspired by Edward Burra, I have a post card of his painting ‘The snack bar’ in my studio space, and each day I look at it and just think I love those faces! I love the ridiculously long eyelashes, and extenuated nose. So beautiful, the imperfections and unrealistic features are exactly what I embrace! my drawings are based upon the pure fact none of these people are physically proportional, making them technically mystical. The elements of magic and mystery are becoming more and more apparent in my work. I really enjoyed creating a character and then having him move from drawing to drawing. It felt contained! in a good way.

CHRISTMAS CARD SELECTION! YAY.

“Introspective is Gee Vaucher’s first major institutional show in the UK, and spans the artist’s career of more than forty years. It charts Vaucher’s journey from local activity to international ambition, from domestic concerns to world politics, and from healing the planet to healing the mind. Including collage, photography, photo montage, painting, sculpture, film, performance, typography, sound and installation, the imagery she creates ranges from the absurd and often comical to the harrowing. Her message spans the political and the personal, the environmental and the humanitarian.”

This exhibition was full on! there was so much work, and it was all really really varied, it showed how skilled, intelligent and interesting this lady is! I loved her political work, it was so strong, and so relate able. It got the message across with 0 words, that’s when you know power has been achieved! When no text is required to aid your message.

So my work is currently being shown at The Minories Gallery in Colchester! in an exhibition called ‘conversations’! so exciting. My piece is a unique photograph, of two negatives layered together to create a surreal, almost geometric collage of information.
