During the process of making the series, 13 were selected for the exhibition. I continued to work on the remaining artworks once the selected 13 were sent to Gagosian and the works donated belong to that group. The entire series is called Betwixt and Between Worlds with each artwork/group of artworks outside of the Gagosian group having a unique subtitle. Each work was composed of some combination of various images of my great grandmother and grandmother (Ama and Adelaide respectively, 1920) Ama's parents (using a photo from the late 1800s), my mother (using photos from the 1960s), my adult eyes, colonial maps, a 'Times' newspaper cutting titled "The Scramble for Africa" September 1884 (published months before the Berlin conference, which opened in November of that year), and colonial texts from the performances of 'Into the Mind of the Coloniser'. The works are embellished with 24 carat gold leaf (referencing the exploitation of Gold Coast minerals), ink mixed with watercolour skin paint made from the discarded skin of a caucasian male art professor called Paul Haywood, and pigment made from discarded guns (both materials made at Col Arts lab in collaboration with Mr Haywood) to hint at the violence of colonialism. The images appear ghostly, like spectres from the past and the colours are bright. I wanted to alchemic(ally) use colourful and beautiful mixtures of elements which hinted at violence and destruction in order to allude to the complexities of our colonial past. I have used gold leaf and overlapping of images to make geometric patterns and shapes using lines and triangles in these works. The symbolism of triangles, power, stability and femininity are self evident in my opinion. I am much more interested in what those experiencing the artworks see and feel.   You must not reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell or exploit any works.

Richard J. Butler Island, 2023 Acrylic, Gouache and Watercolour on paper Signed on Verso 10 x 15cm (3¾ x 5¾ in.) About Drawing inspiration from ancient art and mythology, Richard J. Butler's alluring paintings skirt the boundary between figuration and abstraction. Constructed of intricate surfaces built up in layers of grated pastel, acrylic gel and paint, his work often depicts figures and silhouettes that seem to dissolve within vast colour fields. Over the past seven years, the artist has developed a unique technique which consists of pressing large packing blankets onto the still wet painting, a method similar to that of decalcomania. The blankets' vertical lines are transferred to the painted surface, leaving a systematic imprint on the canvas whilst distorting the image. When viewed from a distance, recognisable forms appear while up-close, miniature abstract landscapes abound, creating sensual and hallucinatory surfaces that explore painting's illusionistic potential. Butler's work is held in private collections in the UK, USA, France and Belgium. He has exhibited with Bowman Sculpture, London; Masterpiece Art Fair, London; Modernity Stockholm, London; Hannah Barry Gallery, London; Canopy Collections, London; J. Hammond Projects, London; Kreuzberg Pavilion, Berlin; KARST, Plymouth.

Zafiro Storm Atomic, 2023 Oil pastels, tempera, acrylic, oil, watercolour and pencil on paper Signed on Verso 10 x 15cm (3¾ x 5¾ in.) About My relationship with art is given by the education and passion that I received from my mother's side. It was, has been and always will be the engine of my life. My childhood and adolescence were spent in a very complicated environment. After a major depression, at the age of 17, I decided to enter The School of Art. I graduated in 2001 with honors from the EADT of Catalonia in the specialty of Jewelry Design (1996-2001) Obtaining Honors in the Final Degree Project for "La Escuela Llotja de Barcelona" (School that evaluates all artistic careers in Catalonia, Spain). The same year, 2001, I was the winner of the Illustrious "FAD JEWELRY AWARD" in Barcelona. After obtaining the FAD award, I was selected by BARNAJOYA and the FAD Awards to exhibit at "The BARNAJOYA International Jewelry Fair" 2001. Two years later, in 2003, the DDI (Department of Design and Innovation of the Ministry of Science and Technology of Spain) selected me among the best designers, including me in their guide. My collaborations with artists took place years before, as was the case with the international sculptor Rufino Mesa, with whom I collaborated years before.

For the series created, especially for AOAP, I have highlighted the most activist part of the speech. I have shown more clearly the dimension of the female character, the girl. With traits that illuminate the discourse of abuse, protection and the empowerment of reason, but since creation. From the female drive. The one that lies in the exact balance between the rational and the creative. The one that is established whole and without fissures. A character who up to now has lived in harmony with the rest of the work, but who is now shown on the scene and points to the viewer. There are four titles: MY LIMITS, a work that makes use of nature as a protective and defensive barrier. Beauty and strength go together without questioning their symbiosis. I show myself, I am. Full. But I know my true beauty. And that beauty is my limits BIZUM, a work that talks about the immediacy of the use and consequently the abuse of everything that is within our reach. The characters in the play laugh mischievously, in a relaxed but expectant attitude. You could say they are ready. ATOMIC, a work that speaks of the potential and high management capacities in complex situations Change our anatomy and adapt to the environment. Turn our ballast (decayed flower) into a soccer ball with which to strengthen our drive towards better results. PLAY HIDE with THE ELEPHANT in the ROOM talks about the fact of playing hide and seek before such an important issue as evidence. The climate crisis. And playing hide and seek with the elephant in the room is not wanting to see the evidence. If we summarize the language, we find ourselves again, before a type of mistreatment, disaffection and ignorance.   You must not reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell or exploit any works.

Corrie Wingate The Gleaners, 2023 Ink on watercolour paper Signed on Verso 10 x 15cm (3¾ x 5¾ in.)   About As an artist, my background in travel photography has significantly influenced my artistic vision as a painter. By drawing inspiration from different environments and cultures I continue to work with both the constraints and the freedoms of figuration whilst also exploring the necessary tension inherent in working with chance or the unknown. Observational drawings and photographic imagery often serve as a foundation for creating figurative works that are rich with ambiguity, layers, and expressive mark-making. I apply abstract techniques to develop these works further, seeking to create paintings that offer a deeper emotional and psychological resonance beyond mere literal representation. My painting style is heavily influenced by the German expressionists who demonstrated the emotional impact of color on a viewer. My works often start with a single colour that dictates the tone and mood of the painting, which I then build upon. I also draw inspiration from the creative expression of children's artwork and the colour and light of Kenya, where I founded an art centre and live part time. Recurring themes of place, diaspora, and migration are central to my work. I am fascinated by the complex relationships between people and their environments, and how these relationships are shaped by history, culture, and identity. Whether through the use of colour, texture, or symbolism, I aim to create artworks that not only capture the essence of a place or a culture but also convey the emotions and experiences of the people who inhabit them.

During the process of making the series, 13 were selected for the exhibition. I continued to work on the remaining artworks once the selected 13 were sent to Gagosian and the works donated belong to that group. The entire series is called Betwixt and Between Worlds with each artwork/group of artworks outside of the Gagosian group having a unique subtitle. Each work was composed of some combination of various images of my great grandmother and grandmother (Ama and Adelaide respectively, 1920) Ama's parents (using a photo from the late 1800s), my mother (using photos from the 1960s), my adult eyes, colonial maps, a 'Times' newspaper cutting titled "The Scramble for Africa" September 1884 (published months before the Berlin conference, which opened in November of that year), and colonial texts from the performances of 'Into the Mind of the Coloniser'. The works are embellished with 24 carat gold leaf (referencing the exploitation of Gold Coast minerals), ink mixed with watercolour skin paint made from the discarded skin of a caucasian male art professor called Paul Haywood, and pigment made from discarded guns (both materials made at Col Arts lab in collaboration with Mr Haywood) to hint at the violence of colonialism. The images appear ghostly, like spectres from the past and the colours are bright. I wanted to alchemic(ally) use colourful and beautiful mixtures of elements which hinted at violence and destruction in order to allude to the complexities of our colonial past. I have used gold leaf and overlapping of images to make geometric patterns and shapes using lines and triangles in these works. The symbolism of triangles, power, stability and femininity are self evident in my opinion. I am much more interested in what those experiencing the artworks see and feel.   You must not reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell or exploit any works.

Richard J. Butler Bowl/Void, 2023 Acrylic, gouache and watercolour on paper Signed on Verso 10 x 15cm (3¾ x 5¾ in.) About Drawing inspiration from ancient art and mythology, Richard J. Butler's alluring paintings skirt the boundary between figuration and abstraction. Constructed of intricate surfaces built up in layers of grated pastel, acrylic gel and paint, his work often depicts figures and silhouettes that seem to dissolve within vast colour fields. Over the past seven years, the artist has developed a unique technique which consists of pressing large packing blankets onto the still wet painting, a method similar to that of decalcomania. The blankets' vertical lines are transferred to the painted surface, leaving a systematic imprint on the canvas whilst distorting the image. When viewed from a distance, recognisable forms appear while up-close, miniature abstract landscapes abound, creating sensual and hallucinatory surfaces that explore painting's illusionistic potential. Butler's work is held in private collections in the UK, USA, France and Belgium. He has exhibited with Bowman Sculpture, London; Masterpiece Art Fair, London; Modernity Stockholm, London; Hannah Barry Gallery, London; Canopy Collections, London; J.

Gallery Representation Currently showing work at Lido Stores Gallery, Margate Statement about AOAP Submitted Artwork I often work on a series of paintings. These paintings form part of a series I have been working on using found images of figures from old photographs. I particularly enjoy focusing on those combinations which have a rhythm, movement and interaction between them. I might piece these together as a means of describing space and depth in a scene.   You must not reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell or exploit any works.

Zafiro Storm Bizum, 2023 Oil pastels, tempera, acrylic, watercolour, oil, markers and pencil on paper Signed on Verso 10 x 15cm (3¾ x 5¾ in.) About My relationship with art is given by the education and passion that I received from my mother's side. It was, has been and always will be the engine of my life. My childhood and adolescence were spent in a very complicated environment. After a major depression, at the age of 17, I decided to enter The School of Art. I graduated in 2001 with honors from the EADT of Catalonia in the specialty of Jewelry Design (1996-2001) Obtaining Honors in the Final Degree Project for "La Escuela Llotja de Barcelona" (School that evaluates all artistic careers in Catalonia, Spain).

Two years later, in 2003, the DDI (Department of Design and Innovation of the Ministry of Science and Technology of Spain) selected me among the best designers, including me in their guide. My collaborations with artists took place years before, as was the case with the international sculptor Rufino Mesa, with whom I collaborated years before. In 2006 I was part of "NECRO-LITOS" of the como visual artist. For personal reasons. I spent a few years away from art in general, and from my career as a jewelry designer. It was in 2010 when I returned, internationally with my first painting exhibition "The PRINTED FOOTPRINT" at "Art House Gallery and Studios", Brooklyn, NY. I resumed my collaborations as a visual artist in 2015, this time, a participant in "El Milagro" of the international artist Abel Azcona at "The Gray Square Gallery", Spain. And, once again, I was summoned to participate in "DES-ENTERRADOS" by Abel Azcona, curated by Marisol Salanova in the Art Gallery "Conde de Rodezno" Spain in the same year 2015.

In 2018 I was selected to exhibit the artistic installation FEC (these are the initials of the chemotherapy I received) in the "REG-ARTE" Contest, with the collaboration and within the Malaga Film Festival -MAF-Málaga. Two years later, Saatchi Gallery selected me as a featured artist in the "Saatchi Take Over" competition, London, UK in 2020. In 2021, I became part of the art gallery "Maison Contemporain Gallery" in Paris with my artworks "War Diary".

For the series created, especially for AOAP, I have highlighted the most activist part of the speech. I have shown more clearly the dimension of the female character, the girl. With traits that illuminate the discourse of abuse, protection and the empowerment of reason, but since creation. From the female drive. The one that lies in the exact balance between the rational and the creative. The one that is established whole and without fissures. A character who up to now has lived in harmony with the rest of the work, but who is now shown on the scene and points to the viewer. There are four titles: MY LIMITS, a work that makes use of nature as a protective and defensive barrier. Beauty and strength go together without questioning their symbiosis. I show myself, I am. Full. But I know my true beauty. And that beauty is my limits BIZUM, a work that talks about the immediacy of the use and consequently the abuse of everything that is within our reach. The characters in the play laugh mischievously, in a relaxed but expectant attitude. You could say they are ready. ATOMIC, a work that speaks of the potential and high management capacities in complex situations Change our anatomy and adapt to the environment. Turn our ballast (decayed flower) into a soccer ball with which to strengthen our drive towards better results. PLAY HIDE with THE ELEPHANT in the ROOM talks about the fact of playing hide and seek before such an important issue as evidence. The climate crisis. And playing hide and seek with the elephant in the room is not wanting to see the evidence. If we summarize the language, we find ourselves again, before a type of mistreatment, disaffection and ignorance.   You must not reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell or exploit any works. In doing so, you endanger our relationships with artists, and directly jeopardise the charitable work we do.
