“Happy are those who see beauty in modest spots where others see nothing. Everything is beautiful; the whole secret lies in knowing how to interpret it” – Camille Pissarro (1893) quoted in Gillian Tindall’s The Fields Beneath The history of One London Village [Kentish Town]
Transition Kentish Town and Transition Tufnell Park have brought together 7 artists including Jennifer Roberts, to explore this field, working on the idea of the hidden images and hidden beauty which can emerge from a background of the mundane things which might otherwise be overlooked. Through a range of media the artists interpret this secret beauty, and develop ideas of visual ambiguity and aesthetics, bringing forth unexpected form for ‘those who see where others see nothing’.
