Maps of The Present Past | The Invisible Line

These three artists (Bamforth, Cordiano, Flowers) are very, very cool and talented. Why?

Exhibit a.

The historicity of these works as a collective is as much about what is present as it is about what is not – it’s an understanding of space through absence, interaction, and time. What seems formal at first, gradually gifts the viewer with an in depth and surprisingly familiar lexicon which reveals perceptions of the ‘now’ in a web of past patterns and ideas. These artworks are simple, refined and enhanced through a stark yet consistently emotive exchange. Humanity and love, consumerism and religion, home and the material, are some of the themes you will encounter through out the exhibition.

Exhibit b.

Because I said so. Just kidding — if you’re in London, the opening night is this Thursday 6-9 p.m. at TIL.
