Jam Tomorrow

About

Six artists reposition themselves to establish a pathway forward for abstraction, modernism and the concept of a future. In an age of austerity where the promises of tomorrow are constantly eroded, this exhibition is an attempt to counter this through a forward looking form of painting, collage and making. The title Jam Tomorrow has multiple meanings and refers to the possibilities of the artworks' development as well as the artists' personal progression. Exhibiting together for the first time, the artists show new and recent paintings, collages, mixed media work and sculptures. Organised and curated by the participating artists, linking strands are visible within and between their practice; utopian ideals, modernist discourse, nostalgia, memory and the passing of time, architectural construction, abstraction, minimalism and painstaking craft. In Jam Tomorrow the six artists make a valuable and relevant contribution to the revisiting and reinventing of, and the dialogue about, the languages of abstraction and modernism.
