Pursuing divergent themes, Guy Simpson's (b.1994) drawings and sculptures consider, respectively, imaginary spaces populated by the works of local artists and cartoon-like visual jokes. In both, there is a curiosity and playfulness; his drawings empty sets for encounters, his sculptures props for comedic scenes. More recently, the artist has turned his attention to painting, and finds in the medium more oblique encounters with humour.
