Andrew Sneddon Transmission Portfolio 1 2 Transmission Portfolio

Andrew Sneddon Transmission Portfolio 1 & 2 Transmission Portfolio I This portfolio of images shows the complete prints for Transmission Portfolio 1 and 2 Transmission Print Portfolio builds and expands upon Transmission: Speaking & Listening (a series of Lectures and Publications edited by Dr Sharon Kivland, Dr Jaspar Joseph-Lester and Lesley Sanderson in conjunction with Site Gallery, Sheffield). The work in the portfolio along side the publications contribute to the critical debates surrounding the hierarchical relationship between visual, textual and spoken languages that concerns the contemporary artist. The Invited artists were asked to produce a limited print or multiple in response to a particular theme. Sneddon adopted the role of Curator/Collaborator in order to facilitate the translation and production of the work. The methods used inrealising the prints often involved incorporating written and spoken instruction or the translation of visual material. By using print and multiples to illustrate the dialogue within the practice the portfolios instigated a visual agenda that allowed for new images to emerge. The effectiveness and success of a print frequently relied upon the successful understanding of the different language used and the translation of meaning. > Andrew Sneddon > Transmission Portfolio

Andrew Sneddon Transmission Portfolio 1 Alice Maude-Roxby's recent work includes two interrelating bodies of research: performance photography and image/text sequences. Within her own image text sequences (exhibited as slide shows, photographs and books) she selects sites to photograph (for example the picture above which comes from a collaborative photographic project with Faye Norman, was taken at Heathrow Airport's Customs and Excise where objects, which have been illegally brought into this country, are held) and presents the resultant sequences with text. Recent exhibitions include 'The Map is not the Territory' England Co. , London, 'Living and Working', Box, Gothenburg and 'A Dictionary of Symbols' Tangstation, Berlin Title: Lost Properties Medium: Colour photo-polymer etching Size: 57 x 38 cm > Andrew Sneddon > Transmission Portfolio 1

Andrew Sneddon Transmission Portfolio 1 Chloe Brown makes installations and increasingly uses sound as a main component in her work. Of particular interest is the filmic notion of the freeze frame, whereby the image stops but the sound continues. Her recent work also touches upon melancholic situations via the use of taxidermy, sound and fake snow.

Andrew Sneddon Transmission Portfolio 1 Claude Heath makes drawings by touching rather than seeing his subject. His work attempts to 'close the gap between feeling and seeing', trying to pin down how to construct the visible by eliminating it from his working process. His work draws heavily on a philosophical dialogue. In removing his sight, and primary sense awareness, Heath is seeking to modify the mind into a state of purely intuitive response, where it may drift away from the strictures of left-brain consciousness into the raw, unmediated, sensory world of the right side. The objects he translates, when successful, have come through a genuinely abstracting, derationalising process.

Andrew Sneddon Transmission Portfolio 1 DJ Simpson Since graduating from Goldsmith's College in 1998, DJ Simpson has developed his unique paintings to great critical acclaim. His large monochrome or mirrored plywood panels are scarred in lines of various widths and depths created using an electric router power tool. Like a methodically violent version of an Etch-a-Sketch game, the router carves paths across the perfect surfaces of the panels revealing differing layers and colours in the overlapping surfaces of the wood. The resulting panels are simple, intelligent and cool examinations of painting and mark making that belie their loud and painstaking creation. The works play a balance between the academic concerns of materials and processes, and the purely physical presence of the huge electrically scarred panels.

Andrew Sneddon Transmission Portfolio 1 Erin Moure is one of Canadaﾕs most respected and eminent poets. Her latest book O Cidadan is a candid and passionate consideration of citizenship viewed through the feminine. She examines borders in language and in the body, exploring ways in which we might rethink nation and community in our era. Drawing on puns, shadows, images, charts, crosswords, computer generation, lyric and essay, Moure’s poetic form belie any settled, safe habitation of the page extending the textual possibilities of language and expression as she grapples with how we might exist as citizens Title: Dehiscence' tiny cape: (from O Cidadan) Medium: Screenprint, brick red on cream paper Size: 57 x 38 cm > Andrew Sneddon > Transmission Portfolio 1

Andrew Sneddon Transmission Portfolio 1 Frances Hegarty Over three decades her work has constituted a series of subjective, yet extensively researched responses to various 'grand' narratives: of cultural and national identity; of emigration; of the female body and mortality. Her installations and videotapes have been shown internationaly. Title: Holypicture Medium: Digital print Size: 14 x 12. 5 cm > Andrew Sneddon > Transmission Portfolio 1

Andrew Sneddon Transmission Portfolio 1 Grayson Perry Everyone has some intellectual or emotional baggage about pottery and Grayson Perry depends on people bringing it with them when they view his work. He is hoping that they might be comforted and seduced by the classic shapes and rich textures. Perry delivers uncomfortable subjects by stealth. His retrospective exhibition at the Stedelijk Museum , Amsterdam and the Barbican Centre in London is called 'Guerrilla Tactics' and included vases which dealt with the construction of gender, the fallout from childhood, war, crime, consumerism, fashion and the art world all delivered under a smokescreen of sumptuous lustre. Grayson Perry showed in the 'British Art Show 5' (2000), in 'New Labour' at the Saatchi Gallery and at Anthony d'Offay Gallery (1997).

Andrew Sneddon Transmission Portfolio 1 Jacques Nimki makes large, intricately detailed drawings which contain hundreds of life size depictions of weeds that are drawn or painted from direct observation and copied from the botanical world of gardening illustration, plant guides and how to draw plant books. Nimki works from the landscape, using plants as the main inspiration. In the past three years he has concentrated on drawing weeds and discarded flowers that he finds in the urban environment, discovering beauty in the overlooked and the unconsidered. Each work is a record of a given area in a particular time, a carefully constructed record of what is regarded as worthless and insignificant. 

These works can be read as the narrative of colonisation and the unwanted plants as the 'alien'. These large drawings poigniantly discover a beauty in the overlooked and unconsidered 
Jacques Nimki is represented by The Approach, London , where he recently had a solo exhibition. Title: Florilegium Medium: White screenprinted on draughting film Size: 38 cm x 57 cm > Andrew Sneddon > Transmission Portfolio 1

Andrew Sneddon Transmission Portfolio 1 Joan Key makes paintings and drawings, and has over a period of years, worked with the cellist Christopher Mansell using an exchange of drawings and improvisation to produce a series of musical texts. Although Key's paintings are not text-based, her interest in the structure of language and musical text is clearly evident. Key's work concerns itself with the complexities of systems we employ in our attempt to make sense of the world. Joan Key showed in 'British Art Show 5', (2000); 'Vivid; painting from London and New York ' (2001); 'Words for Harp; text work for Music' (2001); ' SLG Live Art 4' (2002). She is represented by Richard Salmon Gallery, London. Title: Still Medium: Audio CD with signed A 4 print > Andrew Sneddon > Transmission Portfolio 1

Andrew Sneddon Transmission Portfolio 1 Mark Fairnington is a painter whose subjects include tropical flowers, birds and insects taken from photographic sources. The dominance of photography and new media at the end of the Twentieth century has stimulated a renewal of interest in painterly mimicry. Mimicry also exists in the natural world where its primary function is to conceal, camouflage or deceive predators, ensuring the survival of the species. His paintings have an attention to detail which suggests that their purpose is to reveal all, to embody a whole view of the world, and yet they conceal as much under their immaculately executed surface.

Andrew Sneddon Transmission Portfolio 1 Mark Aerial Waller ‘Waller's cinema at its most intense is time travel, a machine for traversing, for slicing through, the mono directional, dead end shaft of time'. Elliott Albert. Mark Aerial Waller graduated from St Martins College of Art in 1993 where he studied Film and Sculpture. His ingenious and entertaining film works are located in the meeting place of cinema and art, bringing narrative concerns to video installation as well as the critical concerns of fine art to his work as a director.

She took part in the Yokohama Triennale in 2001, showing a work made while Henry Moore Fellow at Spike Island in Bristol. 
She discussed a chronology of works, starting with her hybrid memory maps of 1993 for which she asked people to draw a world map from memory, using the drawings for paintings titled after those who drew them and thus performing a transition from the mind to the page.
