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.

Work / Art Alex Paulus’ humorous paintings reflect failure, denial and perseverance

Artist Alex Paulus’ newest body of work “represents people trying to improve whatever situation they’re in, but ultimately failing”. Larger in scale than his last series, Alex combines acrylic, oil and paint marker to create a variety of textures, which also add depth to his works. “There’s something about applying paint to canvas that makes it feel like a real work of art,” Alex says. “I think it’s a connection to art history that I don’t want to let go of, although I do like to experiment with new materials and techniques.”
