Jax Crew

Traces of human occupation, man’s footprint, interference both past and present are everywhere.  

Jax’s work responds to specific places and experiences within the landscape, she is interested in the patterns and shapes produced by man and nature and how they come together, this involves selecting and documenting ideas and feelings, constructing and deconstructing compositions to explain the thump of inspiration. She says she is truly alive, and lost, in the action of creating.

Jax is a member of the Welland valley Arts Society, Rutland Open Studios, Leicester Society of Artists. Adult tutor Rutland Adult Learning. BA(Hons) Bath Academy of Art, MA Fine Art, DMU Leicester. Work can be seen at Stamford Contemporary Arts.  


Mike Helmy

 

Working with a furniture restorer/maker has allowed me the time and money to experiment with paint and solve three dimensional problems in wood and on the wood's surface.

In my own time, a current love of watercolour, has lead me to experiment with three dimensional scenes, in the hopes of broadening my understanding of space.

This attempt was originally inspired by Simon Sharpe(Head of Art at Stamford School, at the time). He being an architect, encouraged me to study compositional ideas. Hopefully 'by the Grace of God', I will get nearer to what I am looking for.

Studied at Goldsmiths after a Foundation Course at Trent Polytechnic
