Common Fields

Studio Voltaire, London

studio voltaire & florence trust collaboration studio voltaire & florence trust collaboration

Common Fields brings together a mix of artists from two artist led projects from opposite sides of London. At Studio Voltaire, a converted Methodist church and warehouses in Clapham Common and the Florence Trust Studios, in a grade one late Victorian Gothic church near Highbury Fields, 40 artists exhibit an exciting mix of diverse work.

Andy Parker's recreated police cordon tape drawings intervene with the Florence Trust's highly ornate interior. Gill Rocca's sublime black and white cloud paintings suggest contemplation. Poppy George and Tamasin Rhymes have constructed a tree house echoing the architectural form of the church. Loren Beven's 'Cosmic Microwave' humorously explores creation myths. Freire Barnes' site-specific sound installation teasingly catches you unaware or, if you are unfortunate, not at all and Jonathan Clark's 'A New Kind of Sheriff in a New Kind of Town' is concerned with justice, naivety and cowboys, both metaphorical and literal. Other artists are Laura Aldridge, Ray Andrews, Andy Briggs, Iain Drummond, Bella Easton, Charles Engebretsen, Kathryn Lang, Paul Eugene Riley, Jacqueline Merry Bernard, Karine Pradier, Joe Scotland, Daniel Wallis and Thurle Wright.

Studio Voltaire actively supports contemporary arts practice at the grass roots through its studio programme and its education and exhibition programmes create a supportive and critical atmosphere in which to develop diverse artistic practices. The Florence Trust is committed to the production and promotion of new work though the provision of short-term studio residencies. The Trust continues to provide inspiring studio space to an ever-changing community of artists pushing boundaries and engaging in critical exchange.

Common Fields aims to add to the rich network of cultural exchange in London.
