IRREGULAR WASPS
28 April  - 29 May 2010


IRREGULAR WASPS corrals a vital and energetic group of eight young artists from a range of disciplines and backgrounds. Most are in the post-art school couple of years - that window of opportunity when you need the resourcefulness of a street urchin and the persistence of a wasp to rise above the radar. Peter Lamb and Joby Williamson have curated IRREGULAR WASPS for Tintype: "We're excited by the unknown potential of bringing these artists together.  We've been enticed by their tenacious energies and activities which have been omni-hovering in our peripheral vision.  The idea of a provoking an unscientific conversation appealed: putting the works in a space and seeing how they complement or conflict with each other.  All nine artists experiment with a lo-fi aesthetic in which materials are pared down, playful elements foregrounded and incongruous juxtapositions encouraged".
