Cut- Outs

Artist residency and exhibition.

'Cut-Outs' was inspired by the incredible interior of 17th Century house 195 Mare Street, Hackney, London. Once an opulent residence with a collection of Dutch master paintings, the traces of its history can be seen on the walls and floors of the house. Inspired by remaining architectural detail, and imagining the lost ones, 'Cut-Outs' used profiles of mouldings to create a playful intervention. Collages sought to make reference to the global trade connections, and environmental impacts of these partnerships that the residents benefitted from.
