Imagined Things
Paintings by Julian Scott and ceramic sculpture by Oliver Kent. Both artists are interested in the landscape and in material culture.
Each artist, in different ways, engages with matter and making as a research process. There is a shared interest in colour and in the physical activity of making objects and marks.
Julian Scott:
“My paintings are abstract and are the result of a reflective process that is both intuitive and cognitive. Internalised versions of lived experience, particularly memories of place, interact with the paintings as they emerge. I am always looking for new insight and to be surprised by them in some way.”
Oliver Kent:
“As an archaeologist I work with pottery (mostly broken) to unravel meanings and histories. As a maker I enjoy the material itself and the freedom it brings to play with those meanings and histories.
