The 2 artists show paintings in response to increasing concerns around micro-plastics (plastic confetti) permeating the environment.
Paul Sayers paintings of 'one use' plastic ,depicting the smallest details of consumer labelling whilst portraying the overall forms at scale, have us questioning why we are so seduced by such things as the 'physicality' of containers and 'special' water.
Helen Savage examines tideline collections of plastics entwined with organic forms. Through her paintings these morph into new hybrid forms, evoking how micro-plastic sare found in our drinking, river and sea waters, marine life and tidelines, accumulating eventually in our bodies.
