Kimberley Gundle graduated from the Masters program at The Slade School of Fine Art in 1990. She is a practising-multi-disciplinary visual artist. Kimberley has participated in group and solo exhibitions in the U.K and abroad. Kimberley has a commitment to care between friends and strangers. She, like so many of us, has found lockdown lonely and difficult. The space she proposes is for everyone to reconnect. A space that will lend itself to a reconnected society, one that not only struggles on through this virus, but rather one that emerges as a community. Kimberley proposes to share her knowledge of sketching portraits with her local community. Kimberley has spent several years sketching on the London Underground and translating these sketches into small ceramic portraits in porcelain and stoneware and in the making of a series of Companion Cups informed by her pre-Covid sketches on the London Underground. In September 2020 Kimberley participated in Open House London where she shared her passion for connecting diverse people and creating a space for reconnection, conversation, ceramics and tea. This was so successful that she wishes to share her knowledge with her local community through teaching sketching and translating those sketches onto ceramic cup so they too are able to share in the joy of owning their own hand made Companion cup and experiencing a reconnection through sketching.
