Juliana Amaral Leite (Chelsea: BA (Hons)
in Fine Art Sculpture)
Brazilian Born artist Juliana Leite works across mediums in
video, installation and sculpture. Her work is intensely
charged. It is psychological, sexual and physically aggressive.
Leite's deformed bodily sculptures refer to Hell, somewhere
which has 'historically been imagined as a place of physical
breakdown. 'Thing' and 'Victim' have both been inspired by this
concept of unstoppable destruction. They are snapshots of a
process of constant mutation and adaptation.'
Yugo Matsumura (Camberwell: MA in Printmaking)
Japanese artist Yugo Matsumura utilises traditional as well as
technologically progressive techniques to render his prints.
'Landscape of London' reflects his experience in London as
neither tourist nor native. This work is a personal response to
Matsumura's experience here. By combining typically Japanese
with London-based imagery the artist creates his own
visualization. The result is a vibrant, highly original
cityscape.
Margaret O'Brien (Slade: MA in Fine Art)
O'Brien utilizes everyday experiences and objects to create
penetrating, psychological installation and video work. By
intervening with a strip light, a clock, or a letter-box,
O'Brien uses the unforeseen to manipulate our expectations.
Almost supernatural in feel, her work challenges our primary
senses by upsetting our natural rhythms and destabilizing our
internal responses. |
