THE WORLD OF DIANE GOLDIE

DIANE GOLDIE AND FRIENDS

Artist, feminist, former children’s entertainer and maker of wearable art, Diane Goldie is putting on a week's exhibition of her world at the Vaults Gallery from the opening night of the 3rd of November to Sunday 8th. 

Her world is one of colour, politics, vibrancy, quirkiness and intrigue, there are strange crochet anthropomorphic creatures, painted goddess-like soft sculptures, life paintings, drawings, puppets, highly charged political feminist paintings, and most of all wearable art, ranging from jewelled textile neckpieces to flamboyant kimonos.

Because Diane believes in the cooperative, she will be including work by her friends (her tribe) including that of renowned outsider artist and Fabulous Fashionista Sue Kreitzman, Stuckist painter Ella Guru, Latex performer extraordinaire and muse, Marnie Scarlet, portrait pop painter, John Lee Bird, performance artist Amy Kingsmill, performance costume designer /artist Anne Sophie Cochevelou and many more.

The opening night will feature an anti fashion catwalk in the Leake Street tunnels just outside at 8pm where everyone is encouraged to dress as if no one is watching.
