Flowers are a reoccurring subject in Brenna George's art. Her use of attractive materials- tin, pine boards, and plastic flowers- add to the lush images. The beauty of the image is balanced by underlying concerns which range from unfulfilling employment to hidden personal potential.

"My interest in history has lately shifted from methods of historiography towards notions of memory. The more personal aspects of history- the language of signs, smells and so on that we develop to commit our histories to memory- informs this new work...Written language reduces the physical to the pictorial...an indecipherable explanation is not always incomprehensible."

Linda Scrivener's work has an emotional component underlying all of it no matter how abstract or represntational it may be. Her formal concerns are basically sculptural with emphasis on the repetition of the same elements. The conceptual elements in her work have an inherent iconography: paper and metal become symbolic by representing and having the physical attributes of armour.

Technology constantly creates new material for industry and artists often adapt these products for artistic expression. Switzer has worked in set design for television, film and theatre since the late 50s. Over this period he has had extensive workings with styrofoam and has developed a proficiency in realising the material's limit. His combination of elemental form and manmade materials is useful in expressing the human condition in the late 20th Century.

A major theme emerging in my work is an examination of the media and how it functions to perpetuate some of the inequalities and dangers of our society.
