White Group

For our exhibition we have picked three artists that we like and think would complement each other. They are:

Eloise Fornieles does performance based installations, we are particularly interested in her work which involves audience participation such as her piece The Oyster Bar, which was a week-long performance "where people were invited to come into the space one at a time and sip champagne while they were asked to exchange a tale of loss for an oyster (or an orange if they’d rather)".

Kate Hawkins mostly does paintings, video and performance pieces. She has previously collaborated with Eloise Fornieles on a performance based installation, so we are sure they would be willing to either collaborate again or be exhibited together. One of her works that we found interesting is her series of spray paint on canvas paintings called Napkin Paintings. 

Eloise Calandre is a photographer but she also works with videos and performances/installations. A recent work of hers is a collection of photographs, installations, drawings and videos which "explore the possible nature of an invisibility made manifest", we also fell for a video piece she made called Shortcut. 


The venue selection came rather easily to us, half the group thought of the same gallery, The Red Gate Gallery on Coldharbour Lane, so we decided to go with it, especially since it seems like a space that will fit well with these artists.
