100%Scouse
I derive from the word lobscouse meaning a meat stew which was commonly eaten by seamen. Lobscouse was a dish eaten by seamen throughout Northern Europe, and became popular in seaports such as Liverpool. Shortened to Scouse the name for this meat stew eventually came into common English usage to describe a resident of Liverpool.

Paintings, sculpture and sound. I use expressionist and formalist ideas to represent our struggles to include thoughts to a natural order. The lines of flux in my work are an attempt to reconcile our duality as nature has. I visualize magnetic fields, knots in wood or water erosion in rock.

Tamarin Norwood
Tamarin uses language and objects to articulate the gap between the familiar and the unknown. Informed by her training in linguistics and translation, her works close in on this gap by disrupting their own narratives – videos with mismatched subtitles; translations that don’t quite reach; appropriated objects that look somehow out of place; lectures that refuse to make proper sense. Tamarin’s work plays at keeping a distance while coaxing the viewer to delve inside and explore.
