Mark Lyken, will be in Residence at Recoat Gallery, creating a series of original paintings for his first solo exhibition.

The show will consist of a series of new works which he describes as "Abstract Meditations on the Digital World." As our interactions and communications become progressively more mediated and facilitated by technology, our connections to one another seem increasingly fragile. As we become increasingly connected through personal technology and social networks are we becoming alienated from each other and ourselves?

The exhibition will open 7-10pm on 10th February and run 12-6pm Tues to Sun till 4th March. More here!
