recycled emotions; two artists’ views
Gill Horn & Lynne Savege
7th – 30th April 2010

Lynne and Gill graduated from Winchester School of Art, University of Southampton, in 2000. Their work has been seen previously in Salisbury Museum, Salisbury Library, Hanger Farm Gallery, and the Project Room at the Millais and the Stables at Mottisfont.

This latest exhibition at the Oxfam Art Gallery at Catherine Street links two very different approaches to work, both responding to a continuous recycling of human emotions which evolve according to the global social and economic climate.

Horn’s wire sculptures “drawing in the air” and museum pieces use vintage images and objects which re-invent the past and offer an opportunity for reincarnation.

Savege restores a utilitarian household object and recreates an object of desire. Life drawings complement themes of obsession, youth and notions of beauty, which also complement drawings and prints produced in response to loss.
