From the exhibition text:
“Ruth Daniels and Sadie Downing: Juncture (a place where things join) 31st March – 1st April 2023, New Glasgow Society
Sadie Downing and Ruth Daniels are both Glasgow based artists from the Northeast of England in the final stages of their final year of their undergraduate degree at the Glasgow School of Art.
Sadie is a performance and sculpture-based artist whose practice currently explores her previous relationship to dance and how this has bled into her artistic practice; whilst Ruth is a lens-based artist currently using photographic and video works to focus on her love of landscape and childhood dreams of becoming a cowboy.
Juncture is the first exhibition in which the artists have exhibited together and will be the start of a series shows for the pair. The show will highlight the points in which the two artist’s work meet, both in theme and relation to each other. Having spent their art education together both have seen each other use their practice as a way of exploring elements of self and the relationships that inform this.
The artists have drawn on these elements when curating the space in the hope that the placement of the work further emphasises these themes. Juncture will include a series of video, performance to camera, sculptural and photographic works, alongside the launch of Ruth Daniels new zine: The Cowboy Found Me Here.”
