We are pleased to announce the 23rd edition of Artist of the Day, a valuable platform for artists since 1983. This two week exhibition showcases the work of ten artists, chosen not by the gallery, but by established professional practitioners who have each nominated a talent of their choice.

Our fifth Artist of the Day is Margaret Meehan selected by Catherine Lee, who will exhibit a one-day solo show on Friday 24th June, 11am - 7pm.

“I’ve known Margaret Meehan since we were both living and working in NYC. I love her work, so inventive and so rich in emotional content. And brave. It’s poetic and confrontational in equal measure. And because it’s fiercely personal, magical really, and tirelessly humanistic. Formally hers is really the opposite to my own work, and yet we have always had a strong dialogue, and we share a powerful belief that it’s art that saves souls.” Lee

“I have always been interested in the body. Not necessarily in the way it works, but more in how it has been perceived throughout history. I am curious about the intersections of myths, monsters, and medical anomalies which give basis to an anxiety about the body and the act of living. Drawing from the past as well as the present, my work is predicated on the treatment of others visually referencing patterns of behaviour in multiple parts of society at multiple times.” Meehan
