Mayor to Open The Show
Following on from their phenomenally
successful Exhibition ‘ Encompass’
at Falcon Mill, Bolton which
featured work by international artists, Sharon Forrest, Stuart Hine, Siobhain
Moakes and Tracie Shaylor are working towards their final MA exhibition ‘Inception’ at the University of Bolton.
Alan Buckingham, Senior Lecturer at the
university said:
This is a ‘must see’ exhibition, show-casing the work of four highly
successful artists who have already taken the region by storm following the
success of their interim show “Encompass” at the Falcon Mill in Bolton.
“Encompass” featured the four MA students, Sharon, Tracie, Stuart and Siobhain
exhibiting alongside international artists David Mach, Ed Pien and others
including Robyn Woolsten, Winner of Liverpool Art Prize 2012 and will be
featured in a BBC television documentary being screened in the autumn.
This new show in the Innovation Factory will be a major exhibition
showing a substantial body of work produced throughout the 12 months of the MA
programme. The artists in the show have already won many prestigious prizes and
awards, including the winner of the NADFAS best Fine Art student award, winner
and runners-up in the 53 Degrees North exhibition and Bolton Open, Neo: Artists,
and many others.
Although this will be the group’s final
exhibition as MA Fine Art Students, Sharon, Stuart, Siobhain and Tracie, now
known as part of The Encompass Collective, state this is only the beginning and they already
have a number of forthcoming events and exhibition organised.
