SUMMARY:West Kirby Arts Centre: West Kirby Arts Centre: Fleeting
DESCRIPTION:Private View - Saturday May 4th\, 6pm-9pm\nExhibition May 5th -
  June 2nd. (view by appointment)\nExhibition Title - Fleeting\n Venue - We
 st Kirby Arts Centre\, 29 Brookfield Gardens\, West Kirby\, CH48 4EL\n\nTh
 is exhibition brings together Road Studio members Jacob Gourley and Louis 
 Jeck Prestidge. Both working side by side in the studio over the past year
 \, they have shared skills and experiences that have developed and encoura
 ged new avenues of investigation within their practices. This has culminat
 ed in a collaboration exploring the meaning surrounding narrative in the e
 veryday. Stories that emerge from a series of fleeting moments on public t
 ransport and snapshots of famous actors on television. They have each form
 ed a visual language tracing fundamental human concerns through the articu
 lation of the mundane.\n\nJacob's practice is largely centred around portr
 aiture\, combining a painterly realism with a hard edged abstraction. With
  areas of illusion aside flat sections of colour\, he places his figures i
 n an ambiguous\, often surreal pictorial space. Jacob is interested in mak
 ing the familiar unfamiliar\; an ongoing body of work which he has blanket
  titled 'Connection' looks at people on public transport. Acting as a voye
 ur\, through candid photographs and sketches\, he attempts to capture peop
 le on his journeys. These later become the reference material for his pain
 tings\, which each aim to transform a mundane\, everyday subject into a su
 rreal\, emotionally charged portrait.\n\nLouis Jeck Prestidge appropriates
  found media clips to form narratives exploring how visual media conveys h
 uman emotions. Consisting of paintings of found stills from archive Parkin
 son interviews Louis investigates the fleeting moments of vulnerability of
  others we are exposed to. As part of his investigation into personal hist
 ories the paintings examine the way television composes a relationship wit
 h how we look and how we feel. They are a documentation of staged sensatio
 ns composed and formulated to interrogate the viewers own behaviour.
