Not only have I created my first ever gif (woo!) .. I'm joining those clever peeps from 'The Pound Shop' & taking part in their annual creatives Christmas Sale. ( I will have past editions.. test prints.. artist proofs .. colour tests and so on, on show & available.)  Known as 'The Garage Sale' its located within the awe inspiring 'Institute of Contemporary Arts', The Mall, London.  For your £1 entry you allow yourself to be in this wonderful space all day, absorb the Art & coffee.. maybe watch a film AND get the chance to buy a piece of original art at a knock down crazy price.. !

Hermès

A couple of artworks from a group of five one-of-a-kind silkscreen prints, 

commissioned by Hermés Paris, earlier this year.

Two of the five prints were used as generic invites for their in-house events.

Couldn't have enjoyed this job more.. ; ) 

The piece below involved their signature horse, part of their logo.

It became the front of one of the invites.

'Touching Elbows' & Studio 'Flock'

Touching Elbows is a recent & ongoing collaboration between myself & William Edmonds. 

    It is a project focused on the trading of ideas, forms, colours, patterns, thoughts, processes and the intermingling of practices built on mutual respect and admiration, as well as friendship.  

It is about sharing place and holding space.

We were recently asked to extend our collaborative hands, pushing our ideals in the form of pattern on a series of fabric designs for Jenny Wingfield, the creative mind behind studio 'Flock'.  

The image above shows us mid creative transaction.. silkscreening a random pattern on many sheets of A3 paper tacked together, representative of a full furnishing fabric width.  

      All images © Kate Gibb, William Edmonds & Studio 'Flock'.

Many technical hours later from both sides of the equation has left us with four rolls of linen fabric with our names on its selvedge, ; )  The image above is a colour way of this first design.  New websites are imminent from Us & Flock .. in the meantime you can keep an eye on Studio Flock's Instagram page here / #excited!
