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
