Consumer Poster Project Project Completed During Phd by Project In
Consumer Poster Project Project completed during PhD by project in Fine Art at the Royal College of Art, Oct 2011 – December 2016, funded with a grant from Lipman-Milliband Trust. 'Consumer' examines the influence of capitalism on the visual landscape. In March – May 2015 I purchased advertising space around Cardiff city centre and populated it with artworks that critique capitalism. The artworks employ the methods of enticement that are often found in adverts but will invite people to think about the pervasiveness of capitalist consumption rather than impel them to buy something. The ultimate aim of the project is to encourage people to think about the pervasiveness of consumerism in capitalist society. By creating disruptions within the commercial advertising field the exhibition aims to provoke the audience to reconsider consumerism as a distraction that inhibits positive social development towards social justice and equality. I selected three artists of international repute; Ellie Harrison is an artist based in Scotland. She studied Fine Art at Nottingham Trent University, Goldsmiths College and Glasgow School of Art, where she undertook a Leverhulme Scholarship on the Master of Fine Art programme. In 2003 her project Eat 22 was shown at the Science Museum, London as part of the exhibition ‘Treat Yourself’. It is now on permanent display at the Wellcome Collection museum. In 2012 she created The Redistribution of Wealth installation at Tate Britain. Ellie Harrison is Lecturer in Contemporary Art Practices at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design. Peter Kennard is an established London-based British artist. His artwork aims to instigate debate about art, politics and society. -
Grayson Perry: a Time-Line
Grayson Perry: A Time-line Grayson Perry: The Pre-Therapy Years Grayson Perry is one of the UK’s leading artists. The exhibition at the Holburne Museum focuses on his early work, from 1981 to 1994, when he employed various media and made his first works in clay. After a series of exhibitions in various small galleries, in 1994 his first mainstream show signaled his establish- ment, securing what he describes as his distinctive identity as ‘the transvestite potter’. Perry grew up in suburban Essex and sought refuge from a troubled childhood in an imaginary world ruled over by his teddy bear, Alan Measles. At Portsmouth Polytechnic and later, living in a London squat, he was part of a post-Punk group of artists, musicians and film-makers, particularly the Neo Naturists, a per- formance art collective connected to the New Romantic club scene. Perry has described this early period as the ‘pre-Therapy years’, a time when he explored his complex identity through his art, expressing an anger which would later be resolved through psychotherapy. His imagery could be deliberately shocking, sometimes combining Nazi symbols (a trait of British Punk), reli- gious iconography and graphic scenes of unorthodox sexual activity. At the same time, his work satirised such social themes as class and gender and, especially, the conventions of the art world of which he was increasingly a part. Grayson Perry’s Biography 1960 Grayson Perry born 24 March in Chelmsford, Essex 1963 Aged 3, he contracts measles. During his illness he bonds with a teddy bear, naming him Alan Measles. -

While “craftivism” was quickly defined by the work of a few, this thesis expands previous considerations of craftivism as both theoretical construct and making method. Considering the emergence of craftivism as method, this paper examines the work of ceramic craftivists, analyzing their practices and produced works within a context of increased political urgency, using ceramics as a microcosmic exploration for craftivism in a given craft media. -
Magazine MA Modern and Contemporary Art 1(4) Critical Reviews Exhibitions Cultural Studies Interviews Foreword
Cultural Theory 2015 magazine MA Modern and Contemporary Art 1(4) Critical Reviews Exhibitions Cultural Studies Interviews Foreword This fourth number of C# — the Christie’s Education student-led on-line journal — reflects the unique interests, engagements and ambitions of those who have made the issue. As lecturers, tutors and teachers, our aim is to set in motion the conditions necessary for students to begin to gather together critical writing, features, essays and interviews, which map and explore the ecosystem that makes for contemporary art and its varied practices and positions. We offer advice and supervision, but mainly the opportunity to take ownership of the endeavour and shape the experience and outcome as theirs. Before you is the product of those efforts in C#15. The cohort of students that comprise the class of 2014–15 are now, as I write, finishing up their course work and preparing the transition to forging their own professional practices and positions in the art world. We take pride that they may already appreciate such a shift as akin a move into the grand theatre of objects variously arranged in space and time relative to perceiving subjects that is the lebenswelt, or lifeworld. This is ultimately the dynamic horizon against which they will continue to learn and live, laugh, love and labour. We wish them well and thank them for being excellent representatives of Christie’s Education.

Hanaaʼ Malallah & Kennardphillipps
Presidential Seal, 2006, kennardphillipps Photo Op, 2005, kennardphillipps Happened Dawn, 2012, Hanaa’ Malallah Flag 2, 2012, Hanaa’ Malallah Press release For immediate release, March 13 2012 Hanaaʼ Malallah & kennardphillipps Iraq: How, Where, For Whom? 20 April - 8 June 2012 (Private view, 6.30-8pm, Thursday 19 April 2012) The Mosaic Rooms, 226 Cromwell Road, London, SW5 0SW The Mosaic Rooms is honoured to present a collaborative exhibition between the distinguished Iraqi artist Hanaaʼ Malallah and the UK duo kennardphillipps, which will open on April 20 2012. Hanaaʼ Malallah is regarded as one of Iraqʼs leading and most innovative contemporary artists. kennardphillipps (Peter Kennard and Cat Phillipps) have been working together since 2003 to produce work in reaction to the invasion of Iraq. The three artists have developed this exhibition in response to each otherʼs practises, creating a uniquely resonant conversation on the invasion/occupation of Iraq. This exhibition will include large-scale collages, installations, photomontage pieces and sculptures. kennardphillippsʼ work manipulates and subverts press material on the Iraq war to create opposing images and narratives. The works featured range from those that directly adapt media imagery for immediate impact, like Photo Op, which places an image of a smiling Tony Blair against a backdrop of an explosion, to those that require the viewer to make closer inspection, such as Presidential Seal, a 7m long by 2.7m high work made up of newspaper clippings about the Iraq war, which the duo have then painted and drawn upon. Malallahʼs work uses burnt canvas, cloths, wire, found objects and paint to create violently abstract yet sensuous pieces.
