About Starter Pack - Emerging Artists Exhibition
In the months after graduation, thousands of young artists across the country are leaving the safety nets of their art schools and universities. As a 2023 graduate from the Manchester School of Art, it is both a liberating and daunting time that I am all too familiar with. Having developed their practices over the last three or four years, many artists are now facing the often harsh realities of being freelance for the first time, unbacked by an institute or organisation.
Starter Pack is many things: it’s a grass roots opportunity for artists to begin, or expand on, their repertoire of exhibitions, to connect with other artists in Glasgow, to further their understanding of working with galleries and curators, and to gain publicity.
Community is crucial for artists, and arguably my greatest goal for Starter Pack. I encourage those involved directly, as well as those who visit the show, to make personal connections - reach out to artists you are interested in or where you see potential for collaboration.
The twenty seven exhibiting artists have been invited, or selected through open call, to showcase the variety of emerging local and international talent. Visitors can expect to see a dynamic range of painting, printmaking, photography and sculpture. The works are rooted in personal histories, reflections on today's social and environmental climates, and interpretations of mythology and culture. It is a snapshot into these emerging artists’ expressions of the turbulent world around them.
