BEYOND OUR SHORES
PRIVATE VIEW FRIDAY OCTOBER 10th
Exhibition duration: October 7-27th

Six British artists associated with the APT studios in Deptford, London show prints and paintings that reflect interests and influences from beyond the enshrouding greyness that delineates the shores of Britain.
The waterside setting of the studios is a reminder of a maritime past that connects the nearby docks to international trade routes, and a well-established dialogue is continued with the cultural landscape of the south.
Developed from a modernist ethos, these well-travelled artists have produced images that are characterized by simple shapes and densely pigmented colour, an architectural geometry that creates intriguing pictorial space.
It is an abstraction that is the product of distillation rather than minimalization. It is seen and felt.
