Exhibitions / Second Edition
04.07.2012 to 22.07.2012
Second Edition is a body of work created by Katy Bowman in 2011-12 comprising 2D and 2D relief works fabricated from the hard covers of second hand books.
Katy employs the inherent colour of the hardback covers and assembles them into abstract grids; each work is a study of tone and colour.
The title of the show refers to the reuse of old and decommissioned library books as the key material whilst also referencing the abstract grids of the modernists
