Kirsty Whiten: Breeder Badlands
14 January to 10 March 2012
This engaging solo exhibition by Kirsty Whiten deals with the complexities of the new familial unit and contains both large works on canvas and a new series of stone lithographs commissioned and co-published by Edinburgh Printmakers.
Keenly rendered figures, faces and gestures are examined in detail and placed in an unsettling context. The exhibition showcases a body of work spanning nearly two years, from small-scale drawings, through life size oil and varnish paintings shot through with Day-Glo, to new prints.
These are bare and essential images; mothers, fathers and infants in knotted groups, travelling and resting in imagined woodlands and badlands. Stripped of clothes and technology, these families are none the less robustly connected, and surviving.
Whiten works first with models and photography, acting out scenarios and interpreting ideas. Drawing and painting from these photographs, sketches and other found images forms the basis of her practice.
During this co-publishing project with Edinburgh Printmakers, Whiten has discovered an affinity with stone... [ Read all ] |

Selected highlights:
Paul Furneaux: Mokuhanga
28 May to 23 July 2011
An exhibition by well-known Scottish artist Paul Furneaux exploring the theme of landscape through the Japanese woodblock printing technique Mokuhanga.
This exhibition explores the development of the artist’s use of this technique over the past decade, with an emphasis on his most recent series, which has seen his 2D practice develop into 3D wall-mounted sculptural objects.
Mokuhanga, is a traditional Japanese woodblock printmaking technique, using watercolour, gouache or pure pigments applied by brush to cut wooden blocks. After the inking, the printing is done by hand, without a press, using a “baren”(hand disk usually wrapped in a bamboo leaf) onto “Washi”, Japanese hand made paper.
The foundation of Furneaux’s art work has always been about looking and experiencing the landscape with it’s varying vistas and ever changing light conditions. The final manifestation his work, becomes an abstraction and distillation of this contemplation of the landscape, subtly blending the physical reality with the implied.
