‘Dark Star’ is a new exhibition by Swansea based artist Jonathan Anderson. This first one- man show is a sculptural installation which draws upon archetypal imagery, creating an anomalous slightly malevolent presence within the Mission Gallery space.Jonathan Anderson works with coal dust to create loaded, archetypal forms that provide an ideal vehicle for the exploration of poetic metaphor and transformation. Anderson describes coal as ‘a dark, mysterious, almost mythical material’. Jonathan Anderson’s work was recently selected for The Glynn Vivian Art Gallery’s Richard & Rosemary Wakelin Purchase Award 2010.
