DESCRIPTION:\n\nPause for Living - AUTUMN/WINTER\nPink Sands Studio\, 28C 
 Argyle Street\, Birkenhead\, CH41 6AE\nOpening - Sat 18th September\, 2-5p
 m\nOpen by appointment until 3rd October.\n\n\n\n\nAt CBS we’re really h
 appy to announce our next exhibition\, Pause for Living\, by  Roxy Topi
 a and Paddy Gould. Split over two different venues\, CBS Gallery (Liverpoo
 l) and Pink Sands Studio (Birkenhead)\, the two shows are themed as season
 al issues\, Spring/Summer and Autumn/Winter.\n\nRoxy and Paddy have been c
 ollaborating for 14 years in life and art and have been long-time friends 
 of ours at CBS so it’s with great pleasure that we host this long overdu
 e (and pandemic-delayed) exhibition in partnership with Pink Sands Studio.
 \n\n“In the mid 20th century Coca Cola began releasing a free advertisin
 g pamphlet called ‘Pause for Living’. Four colourful seasonal issues 
 a year offered hosting advice\, illustrated crafting ideas and party tips\
 ; aimed at housewives and reminding them to entertain with Coke.\n\nFast f
 orward to 2020\, what a year for us all.\n\nThis work was mostly completed
  last year but it was started a year or so before. Our grappling with a mo
 re settled and tbh more boring lifestyle was only exacerbated by the onset
  of lockdown. Our rented home environment\, full of objects\, plants and k
 nick-knacks all became close friends for better or worse. Time spent refle
 cting on nomadic yearnings\, handed down aspirations\, nostalgic longing\,
  self-sufficiency and daily routines\; values that are advertised to us by
  objects in the home\; all in a moment like none any of us had ever experi
 enced.\n\nWe present still lives\, paintings and sculptural vignettes that
  attempt to capture a mixture of feelings and changeable emotions. (Object
 s which further clutter our lives lol). We can’t say that everything tha
 t happened in 2020 was all bad\, amongst some very painful times there wer
 e some positive outcomes. Let’s just say we tried to ‘PFL’ and be ok
  with it.”\n\nRoxy &amp\; Paddy\nhttps://roxytopiapaddygould.com\nInstag
