Aidan Meighan Artist of the Month Aidan Meighan’s work is often linear and pattern based, regularly playing with perspective. This lends itself nicely to map based designs andarchitectural illustrations. Reoccurring themes of interesting buildings such as tree houses, lighthouses and rooftops, as well as imagined landscapes can be found throughout his work, often drawing inspirations from places he has previously visited. To see more of Aidan’s work, swing by The Canteen from 1st-30th July. aidanmeighan.co.uk Telephone: 0117 924 9599 HH Programme JULY - 2016 .indd 3

Introducing...
(Cont those artist
The Coexist Shop Alongside The Canteen, the Coexist shop is the most public-facing part of Hamilton House, acting as a window into the type of creative work that goes on inside the building. The shop has recently celebrated its one-year anniversary, having become a permanent fixture in May 2015. But it began life as a pop-up shop two years previously, started by our very own Gem Burgoyne (pictured), member of the front of house team and a prolific artist-designer-maker who specialises in creating marvellous clothing and jewellery from up-cycled materials, and who also has her studio in the building. In 2013, Gem was working on markets, and began running workshops with other artists. Inspired by the people in her circle, she saw a need for a space that showcased their work. At first, the pop-up shop only operated during June and December. Running on no budget, all furniture and fittings were built out of found objects and repurposed materials. Initially intended as a space to sell products made by Hamilton House tenants, the shop is now open to designers from outside the building, but everything sold in the shop is made in Bristol, demonstrating a commitment to supporting the local economy and fostering creative talent from within the city. Within the next six months, Gem hopes that the shop will become a space for workshops run by “people who are working in the shop, so that would be people skill-sharing, running craft workshops, teaching people how to make some of their products.�
