You can see Abigail Lane featured in Forbes’ article here.
We are delighted to see that Lane’s work ‘ZigZag Country Life’ has been featured amongst other artists presenting at the London Art Fair this year.
Lee Sharrock has written, “Abigail Lane is presenting an eye-catching installation and wall-mounted embroidered artwork with Suffolk gallery The Art Station. A beautifully hand-made display case holds a headless torso wearing a mustard-coloured jumper evoking the colour of rapeseed fields in the Suffolk countryside where Lane has lived since 2007. In a surreal intervention, a bird’s nest replaces the torso’s head, containing a solo egg which is reflected in a mirror above. Beneath the threadbare sweater is another case containing a picture of a bucolic waterfall, and beneath that a final cabinet containing green wellington boots with pink toes emerging.
On the wall is a finely embroidered outline of a hand with thread in tones of moss green dangling down. Lane studied fine art at Goldsmiths College and her work straddles many media including printmaking, sculpture, installation and embroidery. She “embraces transformative processes which create meaning”.
We are pleased to present a live performance by multi-media artist William Cobbing this year at the London Art Fair.
Cobbing thrilled and bewildered members of the public at Stand E13 on Wednesday 22nd January, pushing the boundaries of clay and sculpture, form and formless, concluded and incomplete.
William Cobbing is a London-based artist known for his evocative and tactile works that explore themes of materiality, transformation, and human connection.
You can find Cobbing’s work on display at two exhibitions in London:
Janus Seasons at Selfridges, a site-specific installation reflecting on consumption and sustainability through the interplay of clay and commerce.
The Canopy Collection in Bloomsbury, where Cobbing’s works explore layered histories and textures inspired by urban landscapes. See the collection here.
Speaking about this event at the London Art Fair, Cobbing said: “I’m thrilled to present my work in such a dynamic and inspiring environment. The Art Station’s commitment to showcasing a diverse range of contemporary practices aligns perfectly with my own artistic ethos. I look forward to engaging with visitors and sharing the process behind my work in real time.”
