New Girls was a small presentation of new work by Jennifer Bailey, exhibited alongside pre-existing objects and furniture in the living room of 38b Peckham Rye.
For New Girls, Bailey showed a series of glazed ceramics and photographic works. Printed on thin polyester, lending them a tactile, almost painterly quality, the photographs featured a peer artist of Bailey’s posing in her studio. The ceramics, with their hand-built shape, hinted slightly at the female form suggestive of a loose formal relationship with the figure in the photographs. The works were all of a domestic scale, but unwieldy; the ceramics recalling decorative objets d'art and the photographs the kind of durable poster that might be found on a merchandising stand at a pop concert.
Works on show:
Danielle in the Studio II, 2010, Digitial photograph on polyester
New Girls, 2011, Glazed ceramics
Other:
Self-adheshive vinyl lettering
Apartamento magazine #7
Aluminium compact disc tower

From pasted up street propaganda to modern billboard advertising, from lo-fi photocopies to screen-printed editions, some of the more creative visions come from the world of the poster, a tool to inform, manipulate, educate, inform and entice.
Posters Fo’ Sho’ explored the poster as both art-form and advert. At the invitation of Five Years members Mike Murphy & Kelly O'Connor, 38b asked artists, designers and makers to create a poster which served to both form the show's body of work as well as the tool with which to promote it.
The posters had to contain the title, location and dates of the exhibition, but participating artists were invited to do or say what they wished with all other creative content and interpretation...Fo’ Sho’

An evening of performative, visual and sonic artworks by Patrick Coyle & Rita EvansA Very Special Episode brought together artists Patrick Coyle and Rita Evans for a very special, one-off re-imagining of two of their works, allowing for unexpected elements of overlap and slippage.Patrick Coyle – Alphabetes
Alphabetes is a performance in which the artist attempts to explain a selection of both intentional and accidental mis-readings. This ramble through twenty-six images and objects is delivered from memory, while the audience is provided with a script.Rita Evans – Disembodied Sound & Light Orchestra 2010
The Disembodied Sound and Light Orchestra is a sculptural performance that is different every time it plays. DS&LO is an installation that combines sculptural structures, sound, a human audience and the immediate acoustic environment. This is recorded by a silent (but ever present) colour ‘measure’ or ‘living score’.
Patrick Coyle (b. 1983, Hull, UK) studied MFA Art Writing at Goldsmiths, University of London and currently lives and works in London. He is a co-founder of the imprint/project platform Antepress and his work was included in the 2010 Bloomberg New Contemporaries.www.patrickcoyle.infoRita Evans (b. 1980, Vancouver, Canada) studied MFA Fine Art at Chelsea College of Art & Design, London and currently lives and works in London. Her work spans many media, including drawing, performance and sound.www.ritaevans.com

The inaugral show by 38b presented a series of new online and real world works by Luke Drozd
At 38b Peckham Rye and online at www.foamshrimp.com
Foam Shrimp is an art space primarily interested in online and paper based exhibitions and publications. To mark the launch of Luke Drozd’s debut online publication ‘ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXY etc’, Foam Shrimp played host to a real world show of a selection of his recent work at 38b.
Luke Drozd (b.1981 Derby, UK) is a man who makes things in South London and is intent on creating a body of work that can be seen as an ode to joy; the joy of making and the joy of looking and discovering. He studied BA Fine Art at Leeds Metropolitan University, Leeds, England and recently completed a Masters in Fine Art at Chelsea College of Art and Design, London. At night he can also be seen creeping through the corridors of the world of contemporary illustration.
