Welcome to this FINAL edition of my special series The Grateful Web: Rogue Studios 30@30 celebrating 30 years of Rogue Artists’ Studios in Manchester.
Today I’m joined by artist Martin Nash.
A long-standing member and director of Rogue Artists’ Studios, in this last episode of the 30@30 series before we open our doors tomorrow, Martin tells us about his work and the history of the origins of Rogue Studios, it’s journey and expansion through 3 different buildings and how our marvellous artists community came to our current home at the former Varna St School.
Having first studied Architecture and Martin completed a Degree in Printed and Woven Textiles at Manchester. This grounding in Architecture and Textiles, both arts which have a practical application and deal with the flat surface as well as 3 dimensional space and form, has informed the evolution of Martin's work. From his early days in a Manchester studio near Piccadilly, producing prints and paintings inspired by architectural shapes, he’s gone on to create public sculpture commissions, corporate works, and exhibitions across the UK.
We look forward to seeing you for Open Studios at 2–6 Barrass Street, Openshaw, Manchester M11 1PU on Saturday 20th September from 12–8pm
