Alex Gough

alex gough

British/ Finnish artist Alex Gough studied at Chelsea College of Art, Camberwell College of Art and City and Guilds of London Art School. He is a founding member and Gallery manager of Block 336 Gallery in Brixton and has exhibited in London, Finland and the USA.

Materiality, visuality, photography and the relation between painting and experience are the cornerstone of Alex Gough’s challenge in painting. He works with a limited palette, determined to make his own paint so as to have control over the viscosity and intensity of experience. Working through the limits of the material and its handling is analogous for Gough to the ‘wilderness’ state, where no known foothold on meaning or known pathways can be found and must be worked out in the passage of the painting. The link visually through the limits of visual technology (the lens flare, the chemical burn of film/photopaper) ask interesting questions about how our visuality is informed.

An emphasis on openness, of not determining an outcome for the viewer, is key, and the viewer’s eye is not able to settle from one moment of experience to the next. There is a silence here, a determination to live in the paint that it is not possible to articulate in language. Like his experience in Finnish Lapland, Gough is embedded in a tacit knowledge of experience through practice that transmits aspects of that knowledge to the viewer in the language (and reflections on this language) of painting.

Dawn Woolley

Dawn WoolleyDawn Woolley is a visual artist using photography, video, installation, performance, and sound.

Woolley uses photographs of objects and people to question issues of artificiality and idealisation. In her self-portrait work she creates photographic substitutes to examine the act of looking and being looked at. She views her still life work as portraits of a type. Drawing on both definitions of the term 'consume' she produces food still life photography to represent different characters and positions in relation to advanced capitalist society. She completed an MA in Photography (2008) and PhD by project in Fine Art (2017) at the Royal College of Art. Woolley was a senior lecturer, teaching BA and MA Photography before taking up the post of research fellow at Leeds Arts University.
