syllagraphica exhibition - more information
FitzroviaNoir
Formed in 2008 by 5 London based artists, Fitzrovia Noir has curated and produced over 20 major group shows, showcasing 150 artists to audiences of over 40,000 people in England, France & Scotland.
This show is part of a series of regularly changing exhibitions at Reynolds and here features a selection of new work make in collaboration between Fitzrovia Noir Associates, photographer Anni Timms and Writer Michael James Hall.
Anni, who works under the pseudonym UrbanEphemera, is fascinated by city scenes and street details keeping a daily photographic diary of all that she encounters. She is also an experienced photographer documenting the stage performances of bands and musicians as well as covering festivals. Her images currently feature regularly on music site RaggedWords and the UrbanEphemera site.
Michael is a scriptwriter and lyricist who works with the band Grace Cathedral Park and reviews for RaggedWords and God Is In The TV websites. His debut Solo album is in production and will be available in the autumn.
All of the pieces on show are presented as pairs with text and image integral to each other - sharing equal attention. Anni titles the photographs sending them to Michael, who then responds to each with a text piece. It is an interesting approach which moves away from the idea of caption or subtitle to create an interplay and new meanings for the viewer. For their last exhibition they reversed the process and presented the work as a projection alongside the framed printed pieces.
All work is for sale at £50 per image/text pairing. Please email syllagraphica@gmail.com

Well, it's up! An edited version of the original exhibition has been installed in Reynolds Cafe on Charlotte Street, near Goodge Street tube station. It's a great central location with lots of people-trafffic and a good mix of creative & business crowds. For information on Reynolds click here.
Huge thanks to Lucy Williams from Fitzrovia Noir for organising this and assisting in the hang last night. Also thanks to Gary at Fizrovia Noir, Ben at Reynolds and the Reynolds girls who stayed last night while we finished the installation.
This is what it looks like in situ...
The exhibition runs until October 7th and is open from 7.30am - 5pm Monday to Friday.It's a great cafe with excellent food so if you can get down there to see the show, stop and have a coffee & some cake!

EveryOneButYou
it's a new day, bro, a new happiness
it's a hand held, a tiger's paw
and it's the rollercoaster dream you had
it's the kickstart,son, the red heartbeat
it's a quiet breath, a reach up
and it's the colour of the coast you walked
it's a kind word, sis, a true smile
it's nothing like nothing, that pencil smell
and it's graceful like a stroke of the brushSunday, 7 August 2011

ASecondInTheCity
Why am I thinking about my legs being pulled from my body, separated at the knee, yanked loose in a flurry of flesh by unseen shadowy machinery
?
Imagine how my mother would feel - watching me with bloodied bandaged stumps, struggling to get back near where I was.
That's if I didn't die. Which I'm pretty sure I would.
It's probably similar to how your mother feels when she sees you with a cigarette in your hand, a beer in your beautiful baby mouth.

ExitStrategy#2
We used to sit in this bright, brilliant room, sundrenched and winesoaked and filled with futures.
We walked these woods watching dogs and deer and being like them, simpler than imagined.But guess what? There's always the concrete.

TheTimesI'veLeftYou
I never remember how passionately I feel about toyu until you take off your clothes.
ScortchedEarth
These damned things press down on you like angry fists, eyes bulging, bloodshot, angry with you for what you've done, for what you didn't do,
should have done, whatever. And all the time you're watching
other peoples lives. You can't feel more sad or gone.

IWishICouldTakeItAllBack
...ing the green bottle black wine spills my shirt touches my chest and tastes less than we said it would, but it did good we knew it would it did what we wanted it to, you did what I wanted you to but now can't rest for sense of ache, the heartbreak of morning drawing a line through me and rubbed out like, like, like nothing much and if you'd seen me now you'd never believe me then when I was bad, this is better but I sweat and I taste steel rods through your tongue and in my redraw mouth I empty everything I remember about myself into your pout and I'm out, hung, over, drawn, quartered, martyred, murdered, spent, saved, selfless, endless and reckless, I'll call you yeah.
