Cafe Bar Foyer
Exhibition
This collection of new works by University of Brighton alumnus, Maisie Broadhead, includes a series of photographs entitled Broadhead’s Women; a collection of studies portraying three generations of women from the artist’s immediate family.
Broadhead’s Women reinterprets the recognisable compositional styles of two historical painters - Johannes Vermeer and Vilhelm Hammershøi and highlights their similar obsession of repeating the narrative of women situated within quiet domestic interiors. By using the visual format of these iconic artists, while makingsubtle changes, Broadhead offers intimate and timeless portraits of femininity.
Broadhead also has an exhibition of her work entitled Peepers at the Royal Pavilion Brighton until 1 March 2015.
