New work developed in parallel, looking at contemporary landscape and traditional notions of the term within an exploration of The Romantic.
About
Since meeting in Greece, Josephine Callaghan and Sarah Cameron have developed work in parallel. The work in this exhibition exists alongside their conversations, looking at contemporary landscape and traditional notions of the term in relation to their interest in Romantic literature and landscape painting.
Josephine Callaghan studied at the Bartlett School of Architecture (2006) and The Royal College of Art (2014). She works across photography and sculpture to consider the popular interpretation of landscape as romantic. The sculptures in this exhibition are developed around a specific area – the coastal road that links Athens to Cape Sounion. Much of this state protected land has been infiltrated by touristic development. Its panorama is therefore scattered with faded pensions, hotels and villas; a legacy of an assailing building boom of the recent past.
Sarah Cameron studied at Edinburgh College of Art (2003) and The Slade School of Art (2014). For this exhibition she cropped material from a 2016 painting performance to make a series of abstract paintings.
Sarah and Josephine also work as part of the group ACTIVE BANK.
