ARM CANDII

armcandii

at the armcandii studio vintage, retro or costume jewellery is reworked into exciting individual candii for various parts of the body.

wherever possible even the simplest of adornments will have elements of recycling from old beads, buttons or sea glass too.

each piece of armcandii is unique by the very nature of this recycling & re-using element.

recycled brooches, earrings, part or whole necklaces form the inspiration for the creation of a new piece of candii.

and someone else’s once loved but cast aside jewellery is re-birthed as a precious armcandii treasure.

ANNA WALTON

My work illustrates different topics focused around self not my self but the life of anyone, a general humanism in life, home, sex, love, landscape, animals and nature. These things are important even if subconscious myths, romantic or beautiful I want to draw greater importance and resonance to these through my work.

Jamie enjoys the toxic fumes associated with screenprinting and is hoping that one day it will cause him to mutate into the mongsterr he always wanted to be,so he can drip radioactive ooze into every print he makes,and team up with the Toxic Avenger to fight crime and stuff.

HELEN BRADBROOK

When I draw I have no pre-conceived idea of how the
image will look, I might draw an eye or a nose and
just see what character comes to life and then create
a reality for them to inhabit, any possible
‘narrative’ though I leave to the viewer. Each
character is lost in their own world; wondering,
wishing, waiting, failing, hoping, tripping, fearing,
screaming, longing, forgetting, guessing, questioning,
doubting, avoiding, remembering, dreaming……

In 2007 Anna won second place in the Visual Arts Prize. For the last 2 years Anna has been apart of ‘Show Below’ an exhibition that includes 10 artists.

RUSSELL MAURICE

Russell Maurice’s work explores the recurring themes of
energy, growth patterns, diversity and cycles in the natural
world.
Stylistically influenced by his involvement from an early age
with Graffiti culture, his works reflect the spontaneity and
immediacy of this practice, embracing informal forms of
expressivity and appropriating its language of activism.
Earlier works addressed the competing forces of nature
versus technology, taking the form of hand painted large
scale stickers, posters and paintings of natural life forms
which sometimes appeared on the streets of London; these
works were a way of nature usurping and reclaiming these
cityscapes, which were once its home. Maurice’s latest works
continue his investigation of these ideas and have included
large format prints comprising of Maurice’s photography with
drawing and digital additions, wall and canvas paintings,
collage, and large scale fabric and cardboard sculptures.
Recent solo exhibitions have explored the conflicting notions
of darkness and light, scientific progress and nonsensical
consumerism and the beginnings and ends of life.Reminders
of our current state of detachment from Mother Nature,
Maurice’s work ultimately reflects upon the interconnectedness
of ecological, cosmic and spiritual systems.

HIZZE FLETCHER

Hizze's childhood was marked by the colourful explosion of American music and cultural influences that dominated English society in the 60's and 70's. This early influence of 20th century American art and iconic imagery, combined with an upbringing inspired by strong females such as Madonna, magazines such as The Face and ID, and a passion for fashion, come together to create work that is bold, expressive, textured and graphical. A clubber since the age of 14, music plays a huge role in Hizze’s life and her use of gloss in her paintings has been likened to the vibrations of musical frequency.She cites her early artistic influences as Andy Warhol, Jean Michel Basquiat, Niki de Saint Phalle and Jackson Pollock.
Hizze became involved in the beginnings of the House music scene in London after graduating from art school in 1989 and has gone on to work in events production for 19 years, doing arts production for clubs, fashion shows, exhibitions,theme parties and t.v.
Hizze has been pursuing her love of painting since 2000,exhibiting in Spain and Brighton.
