'Heads & Tails' 

An exhibition about thought and feelings

Derek Lomas & Gina Musa

Tuesday 5th to 16th April 2022
Open Daily 11am to 5pm 
Private View - Tuesday 5th April 6 - 8pm

Heads and Tales is an exhibition about the stories we tell ourselves, which then affect our thoughts and feelings. Both Derek and Gina are inspired in their work by the use of emotion but use very different methods to express this. In this exhibition, they have paired their paintings as a way of evoking the viewer’s own thoughts and feelings more strongly and leading them, perhaps, to think about their own stories.

 

DEREK LOMAS -

DL

My pictures portray everyday emotions. I try to capture those rare moments when we can allow ourselves to fall in to a daydream, unaware of our surroundings.
I work in oil, charcoal and oil pastel.
I trained at The Medway college of Art and Design in Kent. I am a professional photographer and have been fortunate to work for Vogue, Chanel and other premium brands.
I live with my family in Colliers Wood.
I am a cat person. We are a slipper family but not a kitchen roll one.

GINA MUSA -

GM

I am a mixed-media artist and paint on wood panels and paper. Originally from Brighton, I have lived in London for the majority of my adult life. I have been, primarily, a ‘crafter’ and hadn’t painted since I was at school until I was inspired to do so in late 2020 following a major operation. In 2021 I undertook a 3-month intensive online course, with the American artist Nicholas Wilton and now paint several times a week.

My work often expresses my emotional reactions to everyday experiences and, in this exhibition most of my paintings have some kind of tale attached to them.
