SPECIAL GUESTS

through the amateur to the professional

Our goal for this exhibition is demonstrate lockdown creativity, spreading positivity, ispiring and stimulating the confinants of the four walls. Even though most gallery spaces have been closed to the public access there is still fanatstic work being done behind closed doors. Whether it is through the amateur or the proffesional hand, we do not cease to create what

our imagination is pushing us to do.

You may have already become familiar with this exhibition's host artists, however this page features talent external to Kingston University London. We had the pleasure to invite and collaborate with artists such as Emily Hall Smith, Kevin Specht and Araminta Uncles who have so generously contributed to this ambitious project.

​

We want to make it clear that the art world is a freindly and inclusive one. Expecially in circumstances of our period, inventive solutions and gestures of solidarity and community have a new chance to flourish.

I'm a musician and I've never really made art before, but being 'creative' is for everyone. I think anyone can find something powerful in the experience of making.

Kevin Specht

  • Instagram

Transformation of memories, reality and make believe into one visual narrative fuels his creative process. Combing images taken from photographs, cinema, literature and his imagination, he produces hallucinatory atmospheric landscapes using acrylic, oil, pastel and gouache pigments. These landscapes exist between representation and partial abstraction creating an otherworldly quality to the environment enhanced with the use of vivid colors and inverted tones, suggesting that a transformation is taking place. Within these shifting landscapes a narration is occurring that includes explorations into human relationships with authority, politics, nature, reality and cosmic forces.
