FRAGMENTS exhibition

This blog post has been written by Megan Courtis, who is producing a show in the BAS gallery this December.  Megan introduces the theme of the show, and the artists exhibiting.


 Fragments exhibition is comprised of a selection of works from recent Art and Design graduates from universities: Falmouth, Brighton, Westminster and Leeds. The exhibition is a continuation of their practice outside of university. 

The five graduates have come together as a collective to create a body of work responding to the title ‘Fragments’.  

Exhibition open: 6 - 9 Dec; 11am - 5pm
Private view: 5 Dec; 6pm - 9pm


ABOUT THE ARTISTS: 
(Tom Bond, Chloe Robinson, Megan Courtis, Phoebe Tallulah and Emily Smith)



Tom studied BA (Hons) Fine Art at Falmouth University. He creates filmic scenes and 

snapshots using video and collage by placing emphasis on the selection of objects within 

each scene.

          
                                                                     




 Chloe studied BA (Hons) Illustration at Falmouth University. Her work often explores and 

emphasises the surreal qualities, abstractions and subtle oddities within texts or subjects, 

attempting to create work that is at once surprising and familiar through print-making and 

collage. 








Phoebe Tallulah studied BA (Hons) Illustration at Westminster University. She creates 

delicate abstract drawings and forms through the use of analogue 

photography and digital collage. Her work explores themes of transparency, bridging the 

gap between two dimensional and three dimensional illustration. 
          


Megan studied BA (Hons) Performance and Visual Art Theatre at the University of 
Brighton. Her work explores the ephemeral qualities of light by creating sculptural 
landscapes through the mediums of video, sculpture sound and text.
The work, often made from found objects and reflective materials extend the physical 
sculptural space, through her careful consideration towards light and shadow. 




    




Emily studied BA (Hons) Photography at Leeds College of Art. Her most recent work includes 

a mixture of  photographic approaches combining google street view images and her own. 

Displayed within the exhibition she presents “Virtually Unseen”, a body of work that 

explores the  representation of place.
