Gemma Louise Shaw & Kadmeil Hyman’s artwork crosses in a moment of time. Connected by their approach to the environment and subtleties in overlooked detail.
This collection has been created over the past 18 months as the artists met and contemplated Southend seafront from the exhibition space at Twenty One to Leigh Beach.
Gemma Louise Shaw
Gemma Louise Shaw’s exploration of environment and memories are presented through a series of photographs and frottages. Shaw combines mark making, sound and drawing in a desire to capture an essence of the physical environment with an element of storytelling. Shaw’s work speaks of a desire to retain short lived moments in a more permanent place.

Kadmeil Hyman
Kadmeil Hyman’s recent body of work is a reflection on the passage of time. Observed in the textures and patterns formed by both the natural elements and human intervention over the years. Each image serves as a window into the history embedded in the landscape. These details, which might typically go unnoticed, or overlooked on the way to another destination become the focal point of Hymans artistic exploration. Hyman challenges the viewer to reconsider their perceptions of everyday objects and environments through his minimalist renditions encapsulating a raw clarity and simplicity intended to convey attention to the shapes and inviting contemplation . Ultimately, this work is a homage to the interplay of time, nature, and human interaction in the environment. Hyman invites viewers to engage with the familiar in a new yet familiar light.
