Notes


Max Mason draws on life in the city celebrating the every day and the mundane in exquisitely painted scenes.  

Often Max's work reconfigures familiar scenes, such as children riding bikes in the park or despondent coffee drinks and vape smokers, to construct narratives and personal mythologies.

Max draws upon imagery from a variety of sources to create tableaus which are often cinematic or theatrical. Working on a series of paintings at a time, the smaller paintings are often based on memory or observation and often provide the iconography for Max's larger works.

Accolades

Fine Studio Art (BA Hons),  Coventry University.
Painting (MA), Royal College of Art, London. 

Max Mason was Lecturer in Fine Art and Senior Lecturer in Digital Media at University of the Arts, London for over 10 years.

Olha Stepanian's photography draws on the aesthetic of fashion photography and of Dada and Surrealist photography, like that of Man Ray and Claude Cahun.  Her crisp black and white work are striking in their simplicity and bold in their composition and overall design. This comes from a process of sketching out her ideas before a photoshot.   “Every photograph is a separate story. I look for props and costumes among friends, though it’s easy to find clothes in thrift shops and alter them to fit the model (here my seamstress training comes in handy). I love details, and it is these details that sometimes give birth to an interesting storyline."
