Photographs Blott Private View. Catering by Kwizeen, Blackpool!

Here are a few photographs of the Corrine Streetly and Gavin Edmonds joint exhibition private view earlier this week. We had a great turn out for the opening night and would like to say a big thank you to local restaurant, Kwizeen, for kindly offering to cater the event. The vast spread of delicious canapes were thoroughly enjoyed. Kwizeen Restaurant is located a few doors down from Blott Artist Studios at 49 King Street, Blackpool.

Artist Statement:

Echo, Reflect, Transmute.

 Motive:

I wanted to make work that was important to me.

This work is autobiographical.

Process: 

The work is formed from family photographs, memory, dreams and specific local imagery.

 Also research during the making to resolve and expand upon the content and process involved.

Materials:

I tried to choose my materials very carefully, to where possible convey meaning with each choice.
