Black Ivory Podcast 2.5.26. Emma is the girl.
If you’re in London next Thursday, February 12, stop by The All Good Bookshop in Wood Green for Emma Pugmire’s solo exhibition, “Critical Minerals”. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. We’ll be live on either mine or Edgeworth Johnstone’s Substack for the rest of the world to join us. A free viewing!
From Emma:
We no longer ground Lapis or Earth Colours but I still regard paint as a critical mineral vital to convey and communicate our understanding of the world. I am influenced by Impressionism, Surrealism, Sci Fi and Fantasy Art and Pop Art. I like to paint and draw my local parks and green spaces. I also take my pictures from magazines, advertising, hotel and hospitality layouts. I rework them to make my own interior landscapes based on associations, feelings and memories. As a Stuckist Artist I think “Painting pictures is what matters.” I also attend Counterfire meetings at this venue and try to explore political and ecological themes in my work.
Take the Piccadilly Underground to Turnpike Lane:
