London Paint Club

Spring Awakening
15 March - 11 April 2021

As we finally emerge out of winter and into spring, the world seems to be coming alive again. Not only is nature feeling this re-birth, but artists from all over the world are contemplating what it means to create art in today’s shifting landscape and have been challenged to discover new ways of presenting their ideas to new audiences. This exhibition aims to show that art still has the ability to cross borders, boundaries and lockdowns – regardless of location, race, nationality, age, gender or professional career level. The London Paint Club Open Call welcomes all applicants and we are thrilled to announce this diverse group of artists from around the globe. 

Artists

Josefina Ayllón

Josefina Ayllón

Josefina Ayllón (B. 1973 in Argentina) lives and works in Rome, Italy. Her work is the result of a struggle between fictional portraits and the physicality of paint. She is interested in painting itself as a bi-dimensional object. Colour, texture, and gesture are fundamental elements in her work. She mainly uses thick oil paint to express her mark making, and she is deeply attracted by the tangible presence that an artist has in a painting.

Paul Beaudoin

Paul Beaudoin is an interdisciplinary artist working effortlessly between sound, painting, digital video, and text. His works are characterised by expressive, emotional, and bold colour fields and mark-making to create a rich mixed media canvas. He creates his visual work as if composing a piece of music and always considers balance, harmony, form, rhythm, and the “line.” And as in real life, the seemingly soft colour fields and shapes, all contain broken surfaces, disturbances, hidden and underground lines. Beaudoin is a globally recognised composer, visual artist, public speaker, and author. Originally from the United States, Dr. Beaudoin now makes his home in Tallinn, Estonia.

Lucy Cade

Lucy Cade (b. 1980) lives and works in Rutland, UK. Her work is inspired by the evocation of lived and remembered experience, about the illusory and mediated nature of perception and how these things can be expressed through portraiture or the presentation of a figure in a landscape. Her oil paintings have been exhibited at Modern Art Oxford, at numerous Art Fairs and Midlands galleries, as well as at the Mall Galleries in London as part of the ING Discerning Eye (2005). She was also a semi-finalist in the ‘Big Art Challenge’ on Channel Five in 2004. Her work is collected and commissioned in the UK.

Ruei-Heng Cai

Cai Ruei-Heng’s (b. 1989) enigmatic paintings are characterised by the combination of figurative depiction and anxious-like quality. He paints with personal memories from the times with his pet dog, which represents the metaphor of the confusion he feels in life. He also questions the capability for human and dogs to maintain the sense of self, which he continues to search through the similarities between both lives.

Andrew Cerami

Andrew Cerami (b. 1991) is a self-taught, outsider artist whose work is the expression of a deep engagement with natural philosophy, metaphysics and the supernatural. His primary subject is the vital life force energy and its laws and patterns. His work is concerned mainly with the non-human world and an exploration of natural forces and principles as opposed to contemporary human culture and social constructs. Cerami was raised between Pennsylvania, Jamaica, Cape Cod and London and currently lives and works in Philadelphia.

His work explores the inseparable and fluid relationship between form, energy and material. He treats this subject as a portal between states of consciousness as well as a way to consider alchemical processes of transformation. His work seeks primal forms that emerge from the background resonance and fixes them into the material. As an artist, he seeks to create a context for the viewer to reflect the essential and emergent non-duality of consciousness so that identity can be expanded.

Alice Cescatti

Alice Cescatti (born in New Zealand) lives and works in England. She uses painting to express her life long fascination with the interaction between dramatic coastal landscapes and intense light. Materials such as gesso, clay and silver leaf, through a water gilded process visually express the reflective quality of light and water in her work.

Cescatti has exhibited at galleries around the world, including her first Solo Exhibition at Galerie Siret in Paris. Her semi abstract works often depict skies, deserted land and seascapes to express the feeling that nature is a majestic gift that we can tap into and celebrate the great power and energy of our natural environment. Cescatti has painted several series expressing her concern for the preservation of our oceans in her Ocean Wound Series, and her Reminiscence Series draws our attention to issues regarding Climate Change and the development in global or regional climate patterns affecting our natural environment. She has had both numerous Solo and Group Shows in London, throughout England, across Europe and America and her work is held in Public and Private Collections.

Sara Christova

Sara Christova (b. Sofia, Bulgaria) lives and works between Cardiff, Wales, and Sofia, Bulgaria. Her distinctive work features gently surrealist landscapes and compositions that explore themes of introspection and the processes of dreaming and memory. By analysing her environment, whether deliberately or subconsciously, and then deconstructing her experience, she creates compositions built upon the echo of the visible. Her recent paintings bounce between fauvist episodes, modernist scenes, increasingly surreal elements, hyperbole and allegory, where the most common denominator is reflection.

She has a degree in Illustration from the Cardiff School of Art & Design, 2016. Her work has appeared in multiple international collective shows, in Wales, Bulgaria and Japan (e.g. Millennium at the National Palace of Culture, Sofia, and Under The Counter Culture by underground art collective Tactile BOSCH in Tokyo and Kyoto); and that year presented an installation at the National Museum Cardiff for Museum Lates: Space. She did her first official solo exhibition Stillness In Motion, in 2019.
