The 40th anniversary edition of the annual Oxfordshire Artweeks begins tomorrow, Saturday 7th May 2022. This year my participation is via a virtual exhibition. Plus, there are open edition prints available from codedimages.com.

A print submitted for selection in the OXFORDSHIRE ARTWEEKS 40th ANNIVERSARY exhibition at THE JAM FACTORY in Oxford.
A seventh iteration, is currently installed at: artweeks.revad.com. This space will continue to change between now and the Oxfordshire Artweeks 2022 40th anniversary festival in May.
My first complete virtual installation of 2022 can now be viewed via: http://artweeks.revad.com . I will be using this REVAD CODEDIMAGES space for my ARTWEEKS 2022 portfolio in May. Between now and then, installations may come and go, without warning. Enjoy them while they exist. Everything is transient.

A triptych of 12 x 16 inch plywood art panels with subframe. Shown installed individually and exhibited as a triptych for a group exhibition in 2016.
Whatever the medium, my intent is to draw. I am showing here, a number of current and recent enquiries, with each enquiry recorded in my studio space. An eclectic mix of subject, material, and technique. Each idea feeds back to influence what comes next. This mix of current and recent enquiry outcomes will continue (on social media) between now and the end of ARTWEEKS in May. See: revad.com for social media links.
I have contributed four prints and an online animation to this ongoing international project.
A TV programme about the premiere COVIMETRY exhibition in Poland: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7CB6oHNvkcA, where my animation was projected on the gallery wall, and is featured toward the end of the programme.

The project’s next venue is in the USA.
I have contributed a printed paper plane and an online animation to this international project. The project is due to exhibit in Brazil this spring.

OXONARTWEEKS is an installation of REVADXYZ animations and derived prints. Six lines of enquiry are explored: WINGS FOR FREEDOM, RADICAL LINE STREAM ONE, BATTLE OF IDEAS, FOR COVIMETRY, DUAL SPIRAL STREAM, and RADICAL SPIRAL STREAM. Each component outcome is also available as an individual print, as wall art and on a selection of products.

A paper plane has been constructed and sent to Brazil for inclusion in the OFF HOME – WINGS FOR FREEDOM international exhibition. The skin of the plane is derived from my FREEDOM STREAM animation. The same skin was printed to both sides of a sheet of 50gsm office paper and then folded into the paper plane.

The exhibition is due to open in March 2021. I will add links when available.
I am honoured to have my FOR COVIMETRY outcomes represented in this exhibition in Poland. The project is curated by Mark Starel. This recording was made for a Polish TV channel. To have my online animation featured, both in the exhibition and this recording, has made for a pleasant end to a challenging year.

The face mask is used here as a symbol of our times. No masks are being sewn and none coloured by these outcomes. The mask outline is an artistic device and nothing more.
A lot of effort has gone into creating and curating this space. I treat it as an online exhibition space. The chance of the odd sale is really just a side-effect that comes with the space. Every little helps though. I am more interested in how these different lines of enquiry sit together in the space, how I can introduce new work and cycle out those outcomes that have served their time. It never sits still for very long. Everything is transient.
