About
Jamie Fitzpatrick is a British artist whose practice deals with the rhetoric of image making, the relevance of the figure and how objects and totemic gestures such as flags, statues or plinths are used within the work to impose forms of power and control. The sculptures are influenced by Wilhelm Reich's ideas on power-infactuation, cultural conditioning and sexual suppression, with the works built from foam, coloured wax, alpha plaster, scrim, wood and simply some transgressive act.
Jamie will discuss the work he created while on residency at Edinburgh Printmakers (with thanks to the RSA Residency Bursary) and his recent show in the Vitrine Gallery in London.
This talk will be held in our Print Studio and will be a hybrid event.
