ART in LONDON

During Frieze in London, the art show Thesmophoria brought together the work of four of the most exciting young, female painters, all living and working with the UK; Ming Ying, Lily Macrae, Jessie Stevenson and Gina Kuschke. Within all four of their practices, there is an emphasis on materiality, gestural strokes, and expressionism. Whilst each artist possesses their own unique painterly language, displayed as a group a narrative emerges: an exploration and meditation on the creation of form. Soho Revue Gallery director India Rose and Purslane founder and curator Charlie Siddick brought these artists together. The show was inspired by the Ancient Greek women-only ritual in honor of the Goddess Demeter and her daughter Persephone. For more information go to www.sohorevue.com
