Sarah Walker



Antique English books cast in ice sit on a book shelf cast from a piece of driftwood found on the beach in her hometown of Morecambe. The ice is displayed on a custom-made base in which the melted water slowly drains and collects in two large tubes below. This piece represents the constantly evolving nature of the English language. The photographs of Sarah's work displayed in London were taken by Tim Ferguson, a designer and musician based in London. His page can be found here:

Red Drapes

Red Drapes - Reflection from Evan Pugh on Vimeo.


"Red Drapes are a four-piece band currently situated in London, England. Their Melancholic sound and strong lyrical emphasis takes influence from post-punk and new wave bands of the '80s, The Smiths, Joy Division, Echo & the Bunnymen and The Cure."

I met Red Drapes in July last year whilst I was showing my film "Insomniac" at the Free Range Art Show on Brick Lane in London. We like each other's work so we have started a collaboration which will hopefully develop further. The content of the paintings below has grown from my personal interpretations of their music; particularly the words and atmosphere of "Reflection". They are based on photographs I originally took in Morecambe; a seaside resort town in the North West of England.
