RECENT EXHIBITION;
The Artists House, New Art Centre, ROCHE COURT, February 2010 - May 2010, www.sculpture.uk.com Kate Blee, Richard Hamilton, Edmund de Waal, Matthew Hilton, Chien-Wei Chang, and Marthe Armitage. Curated by Sarah Griffin.
"Kate, Edmund, Chien-Wei, Matthew, and Marthe command their medium and subvert its function. A repetition of pots becomes a wall, or a movement of light; a woven carpet is a boundary, and a piece of lead looks as soft as cloth; silver tools hover between the ceremonial and the utilitarian. The processes of industrial design are married through material with craft and become sculpture" Sarah Griffin 2010
