Ryan Boyle

Words by Jez Burrows, Monday 29 October 2007

We got a nice email from Carson (our most recent It’s Not Us guest) telling us she’d meant to mention her friend Ryan Boyle and his paper-based sculptures. It’s impressive, precise work that touches on mass production, waste and architecture.

Work / Art The prodigal return of “iconoclastic” artist Danny Fox

Since we last spoke to him a year ago, artist Danny Fox tells us he’s been “mostly painting and making things in Los Angeles”, with a few travels abroad thrown in. “I did a few trips, I went to Mexico City for a bit,” he says. “I also just did a 30-day painting residency at the Porthmeor studios in St. Ives again.”

Work / Art Artist Morgan Blair on her “pathological need to make you laugh”

Morgan Blair grew up in a rural part of central Massachusetts as an only child, a lonely upbringing which she says probably led her to become an artist. “Drawing and painting have always been my favourite things to do since I was little, because it’s a good thing to do by yourself,” she explains. “I ended up going to Rhode Island School of Design for illustration, and after graduating and continuing to pursue that path kind of half-successfully, I started making more abstract paintings, trying to separate myself from the rules I had learned in school about what would make an successful image. It’s just gotten weirder from there, although now some representational forms are creeping back in.”

Work / Art How 13 designers responded to a one-word brief: water

London Design Festival is set to take over London’s venues, from the obvious to those that might be a little more hidden. Falling somewhere in the middle of that spectrum is the Copeland Gallery. It may be separated from London’s go-to design hubs by the Thames, but the Copeland Gallery has become a well-known show space on London’s spiralling art map.

Work / Art Mary Stephenson’s 3D artwork about getting lost in a foreign country

A year ago we turned our magnifying glass on artist Mary Stephenson, who was then immersed in constructing imaginary worlds from papier mache and fake boyfriends from clay, portraying the artist’s tongue-in-cheek expectations of her relationships to come. The irresistible story of Mary and her clay boyfriends was been picked up and retold by media publications around the world, among them The New York Times, Metro, Huck magazine and Broadly.
