Great Western Studios will be hosting the Welcome to the Material Mind<\/em> exhibition at the end of April, showcasing work from five of the finest craftsmen of functional art and furniture – David Gates, Alun Heslop (chaircreative), Ian Spencer (Yard Sale Project), Charlie Whinney and Simon Yates.<\/span><\/p>\n

The exhibition will explore functional sculptural form for the living environment, focusing on how an artist can translate a thought, an inspiration or an abstract expression into a manifest object – one that’s often far more than then the sum of its parts might suggest. The exhibition will consider what makes a work – hewn from\u00a0wood, metal and glass –\u00a0unique, enthralling and captivating?<\/p>\n

\"Welcome<\/a>David Gates is winner of the Jerwood Award for Contemporary Making 2010 and the Wesley-Barrell prize in 2011, and designs and makes furniture that has a relationship with architecture.<\/p>\n

Award-winning design artist Alun Heslop of chaircreative specialises in the design and creation of sculptural chairs and seating; the chaircreative studio produces large scale site-specific exterior installations for public and private spaces.<\/p>\n

Ian Spencer and Cairn Young comprise the South London-based Yard Sale Project, which creates one-off and small batch pieces of furniture that combine their unique talents.<\/p>\n

Charlie Winney’s Design Workshop seeks to explore the relationships between materials, people and the environment, using materials sourced locally from his workshop in Beck Head, Cumbria.<\/p>\n

Simon Yates makes individual items of furniture that emphasise structure, balance and the idea of movement and texture, whilst also challenging the normal preconceptions of furniture making.<\/p>\n

The exhibition will be open 9am to 6pm Monday to Friday (weekends by request), with a talk and private view on 24th April (6pm – 9pm).<\/p>\n
