BAD SPELLING was an Affiliated Text exhibition curated by Robert Lake at Cross Art Books. It involved 16 artists - Clementine Barnes, Sophie Coombs, Christine Dean, Dara Gill, Barbara Halnan, Andrew Hurle, Deliah King, Emma Langridge, Kate Mackay, Michael McIntyre, Jane O’Neill, Luke Parker, Robert Pulie, Elvis Richardson, Nick Strike and Simon Yates.
The Affiliated Text project of Bronia Iwanczak and Lynne Barwick explored visual representations of language, with Bad Spelling focusing on abstract forms of language and interpretation.
My immediate response to the exhibition guidelines was my favourite quote from John Cage - "I have nothing to say and I am saying it" which I interpreted in a 'circle square' painting. This work has now led me on to a new series of 'artists quotes' paintings - thank you Robert Lake!
