Meet the Artist: Lynsey MacKenzie On the occasion Meet the Artist: Lynsey MacKenzie On the occasion of her exhibition ‘Chronochromia’ opening at Glasgow’s The Briggait, we spoke with Lynsey MacKenzie about her studio practice, what advice she’d give to aspiring artists, and what books or music she’s drawn to lately. Lynsey, who is also a Wasps tenant, was given the opportunity to exhibit at The Briggait after winning the 2021 Royal Scottish Academy x Wasps Award in February last year. Wasps’ selectors were drawn to Lynsey’s play with scale in her paintings, and chose her for her experimental processes with a traditional medium. Lynsey MacKenzie presents a body of new paintings for ‘Chronochromia’ which explore ideas of time, repetition and memory through shifting planes of colour, gesture, and scale. Engaging with the materiality and physicality of paintings as objects, she works intuitively, driven by colour and composition. Feelings of spaces in flux permeate the work, at once moving and static. The labour time contained within the paintings unfolds upon viewing, encouraging pause, and a slowing down of our increasingly hyperactive contemporary gaze. Don’t miss ‘Chronochromia’ at The Briggait; opening hours are Thursday 11 August–Friday 2 September, 9:30am–5:30pm or by appointment. You can also see Lynsey’s work as part of the ‘Platform: 2022’ group show at Edinburgh Art Festival until Sunday 28 August at the French Institute for Scotland, West Parliament Square. 🔗 Follow Lynsey @lynsey.e.mackenzie and find out more about the show by clicking the link in our bio. #WaspsStudios #WaspsMeetTheArtist #WhatsOnGlasgow #ArtInGlasgow

🥁 A big congratulations to our stall winners at 🥁 A big congratulations to our stall winners at Inverness Creative Academy Summer 2022 Artist and Makers Market over the weekend! 🥁 Wasps tenant Cecilia Mann and her friend Ali Mackay hosted a stall together selling prints, cards and framed originals. The story of support and solidarity between the two artists was very inspiring, and their work complemented each other. Highlands-based designer Jane MacDonald was selected as a winner for her wide array of items – from crockery to jewellery – and her impressive stall set-up. Well done, them! We look forward to the 2022 Winter Markets later this year and seeing what they bring to the (market stall) table. #WaspsMarket #WhatsOnHighlands #SupportScottishBusiness
