Dates: 19th August to 23rd September 2006 Ruth Hinkel- Pevzner: Tokens of Affection
Ruth Hinkel-Pevzner has recently completed a
collaboration with the South East Film and Video
Archive, funded by the Arts Council. She will be
exhibiting new work that explores the boundaries
between personal and universal experience, the
correlation between the elements that bind and those
which divide. Archival footage acts as a catalyst in the
construction of text, interwoven with the visuals to
express the essence of a moment. Belonging neither to
a place or time, the voiceovers manipulate narrative
structure to evoke universal experiences.
Born in Russia and having lived in several countries
since, her background is integral to the collection of the
reminiscences isolated in her work. Ruth's films
illuminate the shared emotional basis of memories
and perceptions that form the basis of communication.
Karen Purple: Paintings & Drawings.
Works inspired by pollen + pigment.
Through a negotiation between formal simplicity and
emotional response Karen Purple makes work that
reflects concerns with memory and space, of colour
and light. Her delicate drawings and paintings create
dialogues that suggest the temporality of time and
nature's transience.
Purple's practice develops through an intense
exploratory process that usually reveals itself through
the rigors of drawing. Her concerns are with the subject
in relation to its own space, the effect of light, of
temperature, of its role, and its function.
