Claudia Jowitt and Ruth Thomas-Edmond, two artists who regularly show in the gallery, share an interest in what may be called everyday abstraction. Both are makers of multi-layered abstract surfaces, which, despite their abstraction, speak to the world in which they are created. Both also build their forms - which move between two and three-dimensionality - through repetition and accumulation of material and mark-making. Rarely simply paint on canvas, their work incorporates found materials from cardboard to seeds, beads or coconut coir in Claudia's work.
