Chinamike
Arts Space
Chinamike
Biography: Mike
Carr a.k.a., Chinamike, is an illustrator and painter based in Bristol,
England. Mike discontinued a degree in graphic design some time in 1998 to
pursue a burgeoning interest in Illustration – a discipline which suited much
more his natural abilities as a draftsman and his thirst for less constrained
and more fluid expression. Over the last few years he has turned his attentions
to the medium of paint in an effort to free himself from the limitations of
more digital based media.
This new direction has seen him exhibit his work in galleries in
Glasgow, New York, Los Angeles, London, Guernsey and in various cities up and
down the country. He has exhibited his work several times within Bristol,
including a contribution of pieces to the Crimes of Passion show at the Royal
West of England Academy and a more recent solo show at King Of Paint.
Biog: A Cornish born free-lance Artist currently based in Bristol, Jedna
derives her inspiration from natural forms, borne out in the more free-styled
approach to her more recent work. “My art is an obsession, when I draw it feels
like bliss.” Jedna has recently carried out commissions for the The Peoples’
Republic of Stoke’s Croft (PRSC) and for a drug and alcohol rehabilitation
centre on Jamaica St.
Featured work: Mural
on the front of the building. Mural in the ladies lavatory.
Samuel Ausin Miller
Arts Space
Samuel Ausin Miller
Biog: Samuel Miller's
striking paintings are inspired and informed by his interest in the
environment. "I paint to communicate ideas, mostly things I would like to
make or build in reality". He followed up a Royal West of England Exhibit
with a 2011 solo show at the Create centre.
Featured work: 'Untitled'. oil, gloss & icon holograms.
James Koch
Arts Space
James Koch
Biog: James Koch is a self-taught photographer who specialises in high contrast street scenes. His is less a reportage style, more a painterly play on form mixed with a sprinkling of surrealism. Photographing real life today, in an unreal way. The featured piece is a montage of street photography taken locally to The Colour Inn. He has exhibited throughout Bristol, including at Weapon of Choice.
Featured work: 'The 8th dream'. Montage on digital wallpaper.
