Wonderland.
JENNY MORGAN – Kith and Kin
Jenny Morgan’s illustrations are at once a bewitching, curious and utterly intoxicating affair. Marrying rose-tinted, Lynchian imagery of top (and occasionally bottom)-less subjects staring deranged-as-hell frontwards with colour mashups and canvas smudging, she has borne an instantly recognisable art brand. Morgan chatted to a slightly punch-drunk (but no less enamored) Wonderland about the work, ahead […]
EMERGING… Inga Guzyte
You’d never guess what Lithuania-born Inga Guzyte’s sculpture-like artworks are made of. Got it yet? Broken skateboards are Guzyte’s “thing” – she sits down with Wonderland to discuss the fun new concept. When and how did your artistic career begin? I had to travel quite a long way to find what I was looking for, […]
EMERGING… Evan Gruzis
Known for his hyperrealistic renditions with ink and watercolour and washes of tropical palm trees through venetian shades, Brooklyn-based painter Evan Gruzis creates iconic, cinematic pieces which slot indelibly into the subconscious like the memory of an endless summer. His newest show Alpha Wave – at Berlin’s DUVE gallery – explored some of the human […]
EMERGING… Rose Skinner
Themes of candy-coloured escapism run through Rose Skinner‘s installation curiosities. She was happy to lay bare her method-behind-the-madness to Wonderland and reveals her ultimate ambition – to build a labyrinth.
EMERGING… Jen Stark
Stark by name and nature – Jen Stark’s kaleidoscopic paper and wood sculptures, splashed from tip to toe in rainbow-coloured cosmic constellations are distinctively, unapologetically hers. The Miami-based artist chats projects past, present and future with Wonderland.
EMERGING… Remi/Rough
A shock of kaleidoscopic shapes and colour has covered the façade of one formerly bleak corner of Kings Cross. The slick, vibrant design that wraps around two sides of the Megaro Hotel and Karpo restaurant, comprises London’s biggest-ever public mural – which launched earlier this month. Wonderland spoke to Remi Rough, one of the artists […]
BARBARA HAMMER – The Fearless Frame
With over 80 films to her name, and a major retrospective at the Tate Modern until Friday called “The Fearless Frame”, pioneering experimental filmmaker Barbara Hammer still found time to talk to Wonderland about politicising audiences, breaking taboos, and the late Whitney Houston’s bathtub.
EMERGING… Ellen Rogers
Ellen Rogers is a Norfolk-born fashion photographer who now resides in the Staffordshire countryside, having fallen out of love with London. She’s worked with many big names – from Karley Sciortino to Warren Ellis and the BFI – all of which are in awe her dark, dreamy experimental imagery. Ahead of the release of her […]
EMERGING: Cal Lane
Just like the story of her career, Cal Lane‘s jaw-slackening work plays with a number of polarities. To date, her pieces stand alone in capturing a delicacy and intricacy quite apart from her closest contemporaries. Indeed, unlike fellow iron sculptor Richard Serra, Lane’s tapestries, welded into harsh and often preternaturally large steel and iron structures, are […]
