"Small World Futures" 2018, On the streets around London Bridge, at the "Unsettled Gallery" for an unknown time, depending on what happens to it!  Jenny Meehan's "Vibe Drome", among other small worlds. Writing by Natalie Low accompanies the piece.

 

 "Small World Futures is a collection of 38 miniature sculptures depicting what life could look like in years to come. Each of these small artworks will be placed in public spaces (#unsettledgallery) around London Bridge. Every day throughout February we will be featuring one of these worlds here on the website. A writer will also use the world as an inspiration to create something new and fresh, their words describing the shape of a new world." 

 

As part of this Collect Connect project my piece "Vibe Drome" will make its journey to the streets of London.

2018 is a year of focusing on developing my work rather than seeking out exhibition opportunities, so I will be in the studio tent working on some larger scale paintings this year.  However, do come along to the Kingston Artists' Open Studios this year and meet me there if you like!
