Brand's new Bell-Roberts exhibition consists of unique wall-pieces that explore the boundary between low-relief and painting. Working in such media as painted wood, Perspex, and pressed aluminium, Kevin Brand takes his inspiration from simple every day objects and reinterprets them. In his hand, egg-cartons, cardboard boxes, and lego-like churches, sky-scrapers and factories are re-invented into formal compositions.

Stitches 2008 is a group of collages that strategically juxtaposes provocative images from the printed media. These works are the result of scarbrough's twelve-year search for printed imagery reflecting the state of today's society. Employing virtual and traditional collage techniques, Scarbrough digitally manipulates images, which he ultimately cuts, pastes and stitches together. This re-contextualization creates a unique and often disarming narrative.
Vernissage Wednesday 02.04.2008 from 16.00h to 20.00h.

Jane Eppel had her debut exhibition at the Irma Stern in May 2006. Orient'ation: bearing east reflected her travels from Mumbai to Kyoto with a series of evocative, meditative paintings. Her second solo show, Sanctum, explores notions of homecoming, of roots/routes and of hallowed space through personal iconography. Sanctum seeks a sense of refuge and location in anxious times.

The moment of death is significant as a transient period, a passing over. In this body of work Lyndi Sales investigates the subject of transcendence from a personal perspective. The aeroplane journey acts as a metaphor for departures and arrivals. Flying becomes symbolic of transition, transcendence and a state of unpredictability. The tunnel of light scenario and the vortex are explored as a portal between the known and the unknown. In this site the positive and negative is considered as a void (emptiness) and a space (presence) that defines the separation from one realm to another. TRANSIenT is Lyndi Sales' second solo exhibition at Bell-Roberts Contemporary.
