Davina Jackson creates an intimate study of the family dynamic, where the relationship between husband and wife, parent and child take centre stage. Through tonality and form, she acutely conveys a subtle dialogue of care and affection, where embracing figures recline and comfort in the presence of the other. Though there is drama in these […]

Dorothy Rendell established herself in Mile End Place in the ’70s, and became in every way part of the fabric of the East End. Her wonderful account of painting in the East End – East End Vernacular – was going to press the week her work was ‘re-discovered’, and so the opportunity for her to be included there was […]

Mona And A Pair of Panties is a cheeky and innocent reference to Leonardo Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa (1503) - in this case, embroidered on a pair of socks, one of which had gone missing along with a pair of underwear, thus resulting in the title of this exhibition. Teasing such threads from art history, Jesse Kase hints […]
