Ep.82 Natasha Dove - Ministry of Arts Podcast Sep 01, 2020

Show notes

This week Gary Mansfield speaks to Natasha Dove (@dvsy_artography). Natasha Dove has only taken the leap to show the world her work during lock-down. Producing photography within an urban environment is the first step of Natasha’s artwork. She spending hours in post-production to create a secondary artwork from each image, what Natasha calls her Artography. Being a bold, intriguing, almost abstract image, each piece of Artography entices and draws in the viewer. It is only upon closer inspection that one discovers the manipulation of the underlying urban image.

Show notes

This week Gary Mansfield speaks to David Iain Brown (@davidiainbrown). David Iain Brown grew up in a fishing village on the South West coast of Scotland, being the only one of his friends or family with an interest in art. He studied his BA in Printmaking and MA in Fine Art at Gray's School of Art - Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen. After completing his MA, David moved to Glasgow where he has seen his practice rapidly evolve. His mixed media paintings are created with echoes of his printmaking past. His mundane, everyday objects are often held in place by dense layers of colour, shape and pattern, with a sense of Matisse being felt by the viewer.

Show notes

This week Gary Mansfield speaks to Ryan Callanan (@RYCA _Artist). Ryan Callanan is a multi-disciplinary artist whose work pays a humorous homage to his love of Hip-Hop, the rave scene and the Star Wars franchise, he often combines these influences with other religious and cultural figures to create a remix of nostalgic iconography. Famous artworks will be will be directly repurposed in a print edition, seeming to have been rapidly ‘tagged’ with a dripping neon smiley face. The Mona Lisa, Warhol’s Marylyn and even the World Cup itself have been daubed with the RYCA-mouflage brush.

Show notes

This week Gary Mansfield speaks to Alison Lapper MBE (@alison_lapper_mbe)

Born with no arms and shortened legs, Alison Lapper spent most of her childhood trying to piece together her own identity. Her extraordinary background and passion for creativity has given us one of the county’s most inspirational artists.

Alison’s reputation was bolstered when Marc Quinn created his modern day ‘Venus de Milo’ for Trafalgar Square’s fourth plinth, a white marble sculpture of the 8 months pregnant Alison titled, ‘Alison Lapper Pregnant’. That sculpture also went on to be shown at the Venice Biennale with an inflatable version used for the opening of the 2012 Paralympics opening ceremony. Alison was awarded an MBE in 2003 and later, an honorary doctorate from the University of Brighton.
