Jamie Mills, 'A Firework for Vincent'

Jamie Mills A Firework for Vincent

Anima Mundi are delighted to present ‘A Firework for Vincent’, by multidiciplinary artist Jamie Mills. For the artist’s debut solo exhibition at the gallery, Mills presents a deeply intimate and reflective body of work over two floors, comprising sculptural assemblage, paper based works and installation.

This work occupies thresholds. Surfaces are stitched, marked, layered and worn; objects become instruments, not only of sound or sight but of passage. Some respond to the land, some hum with memory, others simply await the listening. Here, absence is presence, darkness is ground, and matter is animated by the invisible. Through this alchemy of making, the personal becomes universal.

To enter is to move lightly, to notice, to linger, to allow the work to unfold on its own terms. A Firework for Vincent is at once a self-portrait and a constellation, a memory and a possibility, a light cast into the darkened field of what might have been. It is a place where what is broken, buried or absent is neither lost nor explained, but becomes a site of transformation, a threshold of perception and an invitation to inhabit the invisible.
