Entitled Anthem (ān′thəm), through the diverse media of sculpture, pottery, oil paint and mixed media, Masoud Akhavanjam, Julia Florence, Danny Romeril and Marion Taylor’s artworks are drawn together in a lyrical exploration of this particular moment in time.

About

Masoud Akhavanjam was born in Tehran, Iran. Whilst at school, he took classes to make ceramic sculptures. Later with the knowledge gained through working in his father’s manufacturing business, and his interest in sculpture, he established his own workshop, making his first bronze piece in 2011. Masoud works in mirror polished stainless steel and bronze. His finely crafted figurative and abstract sculptures, often portraying current day paradoxes, balance the inherent strength of the materials with the delicacies of the cast form.

Julia Florence is a ceramicist, who trained in Illustration at Falmouth University and drawing at the Charles H. Cecil Studios in Florence, Italy, before discovering ceramics. Inspired by the people around her, her love of life drawing and the female form, Julia’s ceramics, made from locally sourced clay, are each imbued with a subtle, tactile quality. She lives and works in Cornwall.

Danny Romeril studied Fine Art at Central St Martins College in London. He has taken part in numerous solo and group exhibitions in his native Jersey, as well as London, Australia, Germany and Italy. Danny now lives and works in London. Drawn from a deep and broad love of music Danny’s works don’t aim to interpret or represent specific types of music or songs but instead try to stand in for music, not as a replacement but as a placeholder for it by exploring the visuals for something that is totally audio based.

Marion Taylor’s series “That’s how the light gets in” is inspired by Leonard Cohen’s song, Anthem. Abstract in form, the series concerns the contrasts of light and dark and the resilience of the human spirit. According to Marion, “Cohen’s words went straight to the essence of these emotions.”

Marion works from Porthmeor Studios in St. Ives.
