The Fold, Blyth Gallery / Installation

The Fold, which I have curated at Blyth Gallery London for Saturation Point Projects, runs until 8th July 2016.

Featuring work from Jane Bustin, Ben Cove, Deb Covell, Hanz Hancock, Tara Langford, Patrick Morrissey, Giulia Ricci and myself, The Fold explores the notion of folded space and the relationship between two and three dimensions in the illusionary surface of the art work.

Information

Charley Peters’ work employs a rational methodology of drawing and painting to generate work with a refined, reductive aesthetic. Interested in the point of collapse between two and three dimensions, her practice examines notions of folded space and visual construction. Using systematic and logical approaches such as repetition, perspective, mathematical patterns and geometry, her work explores the interruption of the two dimensional plane and the manifestation of flatness in three dimensions. Peters’ work is precisely executed, concealing the artist’s hand in its production. Her work can be positioned within a discourse about the condition of painting in a post-digital landscape, exploring the material experience of paint in the age of the screen and the role of analogue programming to generate painted form.

Peters is a contributor to Abstract Critical's monthly blog AbCrit and writes regularly for Saturation Point, the online editorial project for reductive, geometric and systems art in the UK. With artists Patrick Morrissey and Hanz Hancock Peters works as part of the curatorial group Saturation Point Projects who organise exhibitions and events to raise the profile of reductive, geometric and systems-based art practices.

Charley Peters lives and works in London.
