It is a trait of many artists to be able to see what would not usually be seen.
Whether depicting a familiar landmark from a new perspective, or focusing on a usually ignored feature, it is often the little considered notions which can become the protagonist of a significant work of art.
For Fi Burke it is the invisible which acts as a catalyst to her artistic process, exploring ideas of love, sound and memory, and translating them visually. Meanwhile photographer Sandra Jordan seeks out the overlooked details of the world and heightens them to centre stage, forsaking any obvious attractions that may surround them.
Thomas Kuppler’s work also plays on an interaction between the visible and invisible. By painting over his images he creates new perceptions of what can be seen.
By considering the undetected forces that surround us both physically and spiritually, each of these artists challenges us as viewers, allowing us to open our eyes to the unknown.
