Blush: Julie Major & Nigek Freake

Author: Sue Hubbard
Category: Catalogue
Publisher: Paton Gallery London
Year: 1996
Subject: Sculpture, Installation, Painting, Textiles
Description: Majors work also has elements of play, a childlike delight in the exotic fabrics and forms. It is this dialectic between process, wit and assurance of the making, in opposition to the raw vulnerability of the object, that infuses these works with power.

Freakes work is collision between painterly expressionism and theoretical formality that these works find their being. Un the interface between poetic metaphor and formal concerns about the function and potential for painting that they achieve their essence.
