EAAF is proud to be supporting this wonderful exhibition of new painting by Barbara Howey, James Quin, Jeffrey Dennis, Joanna Whittle, Julian Brown, Katie Pratt, Lesley Bunch, Lisa Ivory, Lisa Milroy, Molly Thomson and Roland Hicks.

The word ‘adrift’ reflects the condition of having willingly relinquished one’s moorings and loosened one’s grip on a predetermined destination. It is in this watchfully ‘drifting’ zone of possibility that questions can surface, possibilities co-exist and ideas take shape. For every artist this space will be different in its scope and extent.

While the work of the participating artists covers a range of current painting practices the aim of the exhibition is not to be a comprehensive overview of what is a wide field but to open up unpredictable exchanges between works; exchanges that can suggest fresh perspectives, and new ‘adrifts’.

… a d r i f t … is organised by Original Projects in collaboration with Molly Thomson and Barbara Howey and supported with funding from the East Anglia Art Fund and Contemporary British Painting
