Amanda Denny Untitled from the 'Meanwhile Series' 2020, 2021 Photographic Print on Paper Signed verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) Amanda Denny is a London based visual storyteller and photographic artist working with both analogue and digital image making processes. All of her practice now deals with the interplay of image, literature and archival documentary material in order to create new narratives. That 'fickle friend' memory, the imbrication of time and connections co-joined by chance circumstances tend to be at the start of her projects. Her practice explores issues of our mental spaces, including urban living, solitude versus loneliness, social stigmas and conflicted choice. She is also concerned with the pressures of achievement - 'happiness' too seems to have entered the fray and something to judge by, it misses the point. She believes that stories can help you exist in the world and by producing narrative spaces you can respond to everyday life and the social environment. There is the story and then there is the meaning to be got from it through the gaps, juxtapositions and conversations. The photo book and the development of photo-text are core to her practice as is creating tangible, tactile artwork that is designed to be viewed in person not on screen, and are not quick reads. Amanda's work is held in private collections and she has been exhibited in group shows worldwide. Education Amanda holds a BA (Hons) in Literature and History and graduated from the University of Westminster in 2019 with a BA (Hons) in Photography. 'The Book as Frame' workshop at the ICP in New York, 2020.

About the postcard artworks The images selected are all part of an ongoing work in progress entitled 'Meanwhile' particularly the 'Down, down, down and still the weeds prevail' series. As Rhiannon Lucy Cosslett says, "so much femininity is unspoken. Moving through the world as a woman - the way you are viewed and treated, your emotions, your approach to your body - involves subtleties and complexities that are often unarticulated, sometimes even between women themselves." All suffering is unique to ourselves and not having the mental resilience, coping mechanisms or support structures to enable a safe space for self validation is detrimental to our wellbeing and sense of place in the world. Often society is too quick and too keen to label and judge. Habitually erroneous assumptions, based on the slightest details and often fleeting physical and environmental associations, lead to abhorrent stigmatisations and instantly deny the recipient any positive audience. Amanda's work continues to deal with the real estate of mental spaces and questions inherited prejudices and biases and memory associations. More than ever this is a time for reflection and reassessment. Her work offers a space for this personal revaluation and a space to create new narratives in.

Her method was derived in part from the early filmmaking technique of matte painting, where backdrops were painted on sheets of glass and integrated by the camera with the live-action on set. She builds up the image in her studio using cut-out fragments of source material, which she makes into small stage sets on glass panels. She then re-photographs the sets and manipulates the images digitally, an act of reprocessing which takes them further away from their original context and broadens the narrative potential. Her source material is drawn from an archive of collected imagery, which includes her own photographs of abandoned buildings as well as material collected from old books and magazines and fragments of paintings. She works intuitively with the material, finding points of connection between details, either through shared subject matter or formal considerations such as following the path of light from one image through another to create spaces, which at first may appear real but on closer inspection begin to dissolve. She plays with anomalies - of texture, surface, depth, space, scale, movement and architecture - to involve the viewer in the construction of the image, and to make them question it. In the finished work there is often an uneasy sense of a space that does not quite fit together - either formally or conceptually, but possesses a reality of its own. One which we are unable to pinpoint as factual or fictitious.
Delphine Lebourgeois Spring Quarantine Study 1, 2021 Ink, Watercolour and Acrylic on Paper Signed recto, further signed verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) "Delphine Lebourgeois is a French artist based in London She works in various medium including digital, collage, pencil, pen, ink, watercolour and screenprint but her working process always starts with an initial collage of found elements. Her most recent work draws from various stylistic sources (ranging from Botticelli to comics) mixing symbols and cultural references in a playful and sometimes irreverent way. In 2014, Lebourgeois created a whole series of original drawings on the power of crowds "The Girl has a Gun" that was launched at the Other Art Fair in October 2014. The works explored the realm of power relations and female emancipation. Lebourgeois' latest series are her most feminist to date, as her armies of women have progressively taken on a deeper meaning. Her 2019 Pink Collection explores both erotica, the power to assert one's sexuality, and Mania, a look back on female repression. Lebourgeois has also collaborated with The New Yorker, The Guardian, Le Monde, L'Obs, Amnesty International, Soho House and The Other Art Fair, where she continues to exhibit her work yearly. In 2019, several of her works were featured as street art in the latest edition of Need For Speed Heat, produced by EA Games. She is exhibited around the world, including in the UK, Paris, New York, Hong Kong and Singapore.

About the postcard artworks: One year ago, in March 2020, it was the first lockdown in the UK. I used to run early in the mornings when London was at its quietest. Blooming magnolias, luscious flowers and almond green buds were literally exploding from front gardens. The lockdown meant that these moments were brief and really precious. This lead to me starting a series of works ""Spring Quarantine"" about our relationship with nature, as individuals and as a society."
