FELT YOU BASTARDS

About the Collective
- JAMBON
- Newcastle, United Kingdom
- JAMBON is an arts group consisting of four Fine Art graduates from Northumbria University, Newcastle. Mike Pratt's paintings and sculptures immediately engage us with frank and achingly simple phrases borrowed from contemporary life. Andrew Maughan makes paintings that reflect ironically upon the art world and current consumer culture. Employing anti aesthetic strategies, Maughan uses a pallet of garish colours and pastel tones to create a dystopic response to daily life. Graeme Durant's work stems from personal reflections upon certain materials and their transformations. Durant reorders a formalist sculptural vocabulary of form, volume and matter to play host to personal memory and experience. Andrew Sandercock. for information please e-mail jambon.art@live.com
