Kate McCrickard: New Romantics
Marisol Jacquemot Derode: Ceramic Counterpoints
Art First, London
8 March - 28 April 2023
Art First is delighted to present this exhibition by Kate McCrickard, with ceramicist Marisol Jacquemot-Derode. Inspired by Parisian life in a post covid world, McCrickard’s urban subjects are vibrant and beautifully observed. New Romantics explores scenes from her local cafés and bars, or on the streets, where Goths and Punks gather curiously on corners, and there are also domestic tableaux featuring family feasts, and imagined scenes based on the artist’s fugitive drawings lifted constantly from real life. In an unusual collaboration, Jacquemot-Derode’s sculptural, gorgeous vessels are made in response to McCrickard’s paintings as Ceramic Counterpoints.
