Gallery 1
Snorv: Bradford born conceptual landscape artist.
I am interested in naturally formed shapes and textures.
Mankind generally strives to create incredibly flat surfaces whereas nature will create infinitely complex ones. The interaction between these natural and unnatural forces creates the visual basis for my works.
What will the combination of mankind and nature create? Will one indefinitely overthrow the other? What would a perfect balance look like?
I display to you the concept of tangible spatial awareness, liquid nothing and the polarised / full circle nature of the universe.

In a variety of forms Palmer illustrates the challenges that restrictive definitions of masculinity pose to men, suggesting that the reality of redundancy, anxiety and depression needs to find expression beyond the stereotype.

Gallery 2
Taylor Rianne’s exhibition is a creative and witty insight into growing up as an autistic female in the 21st century. A exploration into the highs and lows of life with autism, and hearing voices, through a unique series of photographic artworks visualising the challenges faced, in a fresh and unique pop art style.
Using both digital and analog photography to tell a narrative of different stories throughout her work, she creates and captures the emotion of her subjects in a powerful and refreshing way.
