Naomi Frears @ Kestle Barton, Helston

Naomi Frears works in the Porthmeor Studios in St Ives. Drawing, painting and printmaking are at the core of her practice as well as work with moving image and sound. She has shown extensively in galleries and museums across Cornwall including Art Now Cornwall at Tate St Ives and also exhibits in London. Her work appears regularly on the cover of The London Review of Books and she is involved with gallery education at Newlyn Art gallery and The Exchange as well as at Tate St Ives.
Frears has made a new work specifically for this show at Kestle Barton. Filmed over several weeks through her studio window on Porthmeor Beach in St Ives, this work observes, arranges, frames, and choreographs different types of human activity and behaviour. Works on paper stimulated by source material gathered in preparation for this exhibition will be shown alongside the new film.
