‘Think
Thick

Dream
Dried

Be

Beyond the depth of
Form,
Abstraction,

Beyond the mark,
Cluster of granules,
Of lines that fade in and out,
Up and down,
Moving with an uncontrollable stream of consciousness,
Weaving in, dipping.’

There is a methodology to making painting. It’s a structure that artists have obeyed and disobeyed for a long time. It’s about testing the limitations of the material, and finding that point where the image or the object transcends the material and becomes something else.
It has a steadiness, an accumulation that builds up in the making, and unwinds in the viewing.

This show reunites three British painters that studied in Falmouth, UK ten years ago. The conversation will be about friendship, tenderness, remembering, losing touch, changing lives, chaos, order and using your hands. It all takes places around this central dialogue of painting: the consistency of the material pressed through three revolving lives, and its expression through colour, shape, movement, image and form. It’s a show for people that love painting, love what it can do, and what it brings out of you.

The work will be shown in the surround of the new changes to Top Schillerpalais, a space for bioart, bioscience and the new campaign Top Lab.

During the exhibition there will be an Artist talk and a workshop by Burnt Sienna Berlin, an artist cooperative providing classes and mentoring material relating to the visual arts.
