Test Space: Jemima Mansell and Maisy Timney
Recent graduates, Jemima Mansell (Arts University Plymouth) and Maisy Timney (Bath Spa University), present work in progress.
Recent graduates, Jemima Mansell (Arts University Plymouth) and Maisy Timney (Bath Spa University), present work they have developed during their six month residency at KARST.
In an increasingly digitally native society, Jemima Mansell’s practice explores the relationships we form with our immediate digital technology and the blurring of boundaries between the human and non-human. Recently, her practice has consisted of sculptural, print and text-based works, exploring ontological ideas with a focus on the strange comfort technology can provide during periods of grief.
Maisy Timney’s paintings explore the tension between the painted surface and the pictorial image. Through layered colour fields, gestural marks and precise brushwork, Maisy creates compositions that balance movement with painterly structure, experimenting with transparency and texture. Repetition plays a key role as a recurring motif with marks emerging through deliberate, rehearsed techniques of applying paint.
Opening Event
Friday 28 February, 6-9pm
Artists in conversation with KARST Head of Programme Ben Borthwick
Saturday 8 March, 12-1pm
