Elam MFA students Carolin Casey, Matt Heays, Vicki Ormond, Mathew Teirney and Sarah Williams can¿t agree on much, but these days who can? The five apply themselves to a challenge proposed by an unnamed member of the group. They reinterpret an intimate knowledge of their individual practices for the purpose of a single exhibition: the notion of themselves as colourinists serves to challenge the inertia of each member¿s practice. In the first instance what is a colourinist? While such asinine machinations may prove to be at worst a heavy-handed and clumsy intrusion, at best these will meld with the current concerns of their practice. Ultimately any conversation needs a catalyst, and so the notion of the colourinist serves this purpose with lightsome sprit. The exhibition catalogue includes a written work by Anne Hensel (MA, Universitat Bremen).
