ArtSpace Exhibition - November
Our ArtSpace celebrates the work of creatives within the local community. With several different artists and exhibitions on rotation throughout the year, we display a variety of work and mediums so there is something for everyone to enjoy!
November's Exhibition: Egli Petta and Louis Loveless
Egli Petta is presenting ‘The essence of vision’
She studied BA
(Hons) Fine Art and MFA in Painting/Drawing but also she did further
studies in Museum and Art Galleries in United Kingdom. She is a member of the
Chamber of Fine Arts of Greece (EETE) and member at the International Council
of Museums (ICOM).
Egli is a
contemporary artist. Her diverse artistic practice has garnered international
recognition, with exhibitions spanning from Athens, Glasgow, London, Sao Paulo.
Her painting is a prime example of abstractionism with masterful use of colour
and curiocity about time, space as historical references.

Louis Loveless: 'The main part of my practice consists of composing paintings
using collages and diagrams, combining different types of mark-making and
texture to create networks that connect iconography from various contexts. I
work with imagery inspired by my research into the Gothic, cutting-edge
technology, folklore, and religion.
A thread that runs through my work is a
curiosity with dread, most notably numinous dread: a concept about fear's role
in religious experience. At the core of my practice is a search for hidden
meaning and a sense of the mystical.'
