Kedals: Chop Your Own Wood

- Kedals
Solo exhibition for Bristol painter Kedals.
“Kedals’ paintings seem to unfold in front of you – the characters, colours and abstract symbols and patterns attempt to engage reflection on a much simpler past. Segments of recognisable icons merge with incomplete calligraphy, traditional sign writing, scribbles and drips.
“In a time when we’re continually bombarded with new forms of entertainment and media; these paintings are constructed with pop-cultural points of reference. But they are not merely retrospective – Kedals’ disrupted characters and use of ‘keywords’ are encouraging the viewer to reflect on life, question iconography and take stock of the present.
is needed now More than ever
“Kedal’s paintings are about everyone’s today – when it’s crucial to recognise the value of memory whilst treasuring the moment.”
Opening Night Preview June 6, 6-9pm. Exhibition continues June 7-22, Tue-Sat 11am-6pm.
