"Dive-bomber" mixed media collage work, part of a series of 4 fly collages. (Sold but other versions available.) 'Bowled Over' - an exhibition of contemporary artworks at Willowbank Bowling Club, Glasgow, 3rd & 4th May 2015.
‘Bowled Over’ involved the exhibition of new artworks by nine artists, curated by Janie Nicoll, relating to the theme of Lawn Bowls as interpreted by each artist, and in a variety of media.
The exhibition stems from Nicoll's involvement last year with local bowling clubs in order to create the short film "Bowling Club", a 13 minute film commissioned for the Commonwealth Games Cultural Programme 2014. The film was shown at The Bandstand at Kelvingrove Park and has subsequently been shown at various Bowling Club’s in Glasgow and Australia. The film uses historical film footage from the Scottish Film Archive, as well as contemporary imagery of the game, exploring the personal histories and motivations of the players, with a strong interest in the social dynamics of the game. The selected artists were asked to create responses to the theme of Lawn Bowls and to make works for the context of a functioning social sports venue.

Glasgow Open House Art Festival first took place in April 2014. It is clear from its initial success — over 80 artists participated at venues spread across the city — that there is a real need for an event such as this to showcase Glasgow's hidden wealth of creative activity. The festival provides a platform for artists both emerging and established, opening up their practices — and in many instances, their homes — to new audiences. By removing art from conventional spaces and embedding it within the very fabric of the city — its tenements, disused buildings, wastelands, and other unsung spaces — Glasgow Open House Art Festival transforms the landscape of Glasgow, thereby offering a new perspective of the city to its inhabitants. |
