In this bonus episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Malgorzata Lisiecka @malgorzata_lisiecka
Malgorzata is an artist based in London whose practice is located between sculpture, public art, installation, costume, and performance.
She crosses the boundaries of disciplines, shifting the functions of both wearable objects and the body, or interacting with the surrounding space.
Her works take into consideration the place, environment and spectators who are often becoming unaware participants of the artwork itself.
Exploring the phenomena of biology, nature, as well as the social and technological aspects of our world, leads her into the sphere of experimentation with scale, connection and communication between the material and immaterial realms.

Vitor Lopes – New Artist Fair 2024/ MoA Bonus Episode 44
22:40|In this bonus episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Vitor Lopes (@vitorlopes.art), who is showing in the New Art Fair 2024, at the Truman Brewery, London, from 27-29 September 2024For years I have explored different avenues of creative expression, fully immersing myself in the works of artists and the extensive realm of art history. My expertise primarily stems from self-teaching, supplemented by short courses in drawing, sculpture, mould making, casting, 3D modeling, and product design. However, it was only three years ago that I made the conscious decision to fully embrace the world of fine art photography, from concept, photography, printing and framing. Mystyle reflects limitless creativity and a distinct artistic flair, involving the human body and powerfull messages of hope, love and reflection.

Ep.260 Nana SRT - Ministry of Arts Podcast

She lives and works between London and Vienna. Introduced by her father to the NikonFM as an early teen, Nana picked up photography and darkroom as a voluntary side subject in high school.

Her photography remained a private pastime. In 2009, NSRT shot her first dance series entitled Move!, which is included in her public portfolio today. Finding herself amidst heaps of photographs, in 2019 NSRT decided to share some of these publicly, and took the leap to participate in art fairs, making her debut at The Other Art Fair w Saatchi Art in Brooklyn, New York.Various art fairs have followed since, including Red Dot at Miami Art Week (2022 and 2023), Art Wynwood (Miami 2023), and Art Santa Fe (2023). NSRT has exhibited at some group shows including: at Bergdorff Goodman (NYC), Orchard Galerie (NYC), and some independently run local art events in East London. She launched her first book DAIDO LOVE at Offspring London and Peckham24, published by Photobook Café Editions, in May 2024. Daido Love is stocked in London at The Photographers Gallery, and Photobook Café, and in Vienna at Westlicht. NSRT continues to immerse herself in the world of dance and draws inspiration from it.

27:54|In this bonus episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Jonny Mellor (@JonnyMellorArt) who is showing in the New Art Fair 2024, at the Truman Brewery, London, from 27-29 September 2024I am an artist strongly influenced by minimalism and geometric abstraction. I use this visual language to create paintings, prints and hand cut paper art . The exploration of colour, process, materials, space and form are central to my practice.I am interested in taking forms, shapes and patterns and combining these with carefully considered colour combinations. I am continually striving to achieve balance and harmony within my works composition and colour pallet.Amongst the barrage of visual stimulation and the overall increasingly chaoticness of life, minimalist art is at rest, creating a quiet harmony and balance which offers the viewer a space of calmness and contemplation.

31:40|In this bonus episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Stella Zuegel (@stellazuegelart) who is showing in the New Art Fair 2024, at the Truman Brewery, London, from 27-29 September 2024Contemporary geometric artist Stella Zuegel creates unique art using both watercolour on paper, and acrylic and oil paint on canvas. Each piece is painted free hand and takes between 3-24 months to complete. In her work, Stella plays with shapes and colours to create depth, dimension and cohesion. These curate a journey of free-flowing exploration through individual shapes, larger patterns and the composition as a whole for the audience.Stella’s work is inspired both by the poignant stories and emotions of herself and the people she meets and by an organic curiosity towards the very nature of self and the universe. Her work is thus a geometric representation of her inner path to discover the essence of her being and her journey towards understanding the world and its people, whilst also being a colourful expression of human experience and emotion.

Ep.259 Natalie Chapman - Ministry of Arts Podcast
49:53||Ep. 259In this episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Natalie Chapman (@nataliechapmanartist)Natalie Chapman paints portraits that engage with family identity and issues based around dysfunctional relationships and social documentary. She is influenced by the work of photographers Richard Billingham and Nan Golding, and have similarly focused on spontaneous snapshot- compositions, saturated colour space and incidental objects in order to set a scene of everyday life. She has returned to the same old photographs of her childhood, to re-arrange her memories and work through family history and its daily struggle. Natalie wants her work to feel edgy and to seduce the viewer into contemplating ambiguous tension, a sense of emptiness, boredom and anxiety. Her process involves capturing memories using small collages of family portraits with interior scenes recalled from childhood. These studies are scaled up on large canvases to create presence and intensify personal stories using gritty expression and garish colour. She wants to create images about human relationships that are simultaneously tender and dysfunctional.

We have a new venue! We are re-opening Thamesview Golf Course in Thamesmead, South East London for the return of the PARK. The site has been closed to the public for over a decade and we're excited to be reactivating this amazing space with art, culture and exploration. Everyone can apply. We encourage applications from artists at all stages of their creative career.No fees. Winter Sculpture Park remains free to view, free to show.This year our open call welcomes all forms of sculpture, public art, participatory art, land art and architecture. We are also inviting applications for workshops and creative activities.DEADLINE: Sunday 29th September 2024. Thamesview Golf Centre has been out of use for over a decade, leaving the attached green spaces fenced off and inaccessible to the public.

Developing ideas for Winter Sculpture Park submissions requires a consideration of the land for installation and durability. The No.32 team is here to support your plans with this! So do give us a nudge if you have any questions or need some advice.
