Untitled Gallery is pleased to present Variable, an exhibition of new works by Manchester-based artists Andrew Lim and Lee Machell in which sculpture and 2D works unite to punctuate the exhibition space. Conventional materials constitute both artists' works in Variable whose appropriation places emphasis on the playful nuances that unite each of the artists' works.

Andrew Lim studied at Manchester Metropolitan University where he received his BA (Hons) Fine Art Sculpture in 2007. Recent exhibitions include Space Exchange (2011), Aid & Abet, Cambridge; On Measuring Uncertainty (2011), Castlefield Gallery, Manchester; and First Step (2009), Chinese Arts Centre, Manchester. Lee Machell studied at the University of Salford where he received his BA (Hons) Visual Arts in 2005. Recent exhibitions include Peering Sideways (2011), Project Space Leeds, Leeds; Drawings & Matches (2011), Untitled Gallery, Manchester; and The Manchester Contemporary (Untitled Gallery) in 2011.

Tatton Park Biennial 2012
Tatton Park Biennial: Flights of Fancy opens to the public on 12 May and runs through the summer until 30 September, 2012.
This third edition of the Biennial considers the human urge to fly, to accomplish the impossible in fragile times. Its artists are considering the impact of experimentation on delicate eco-systems, looking backward and forward for guidance, wisdom and/or humour. Their proposed results are experiments in time and space.
Hilary Jack, with support from Castlefield Gallery, is developing Empty Nest, a human-scale nest located in a hundred year old Variegated Sycamore in Tatton’s Formal Gardens.
Taking its inspiration from the life of the last Lord Egerton, who died without heir and left the estate to the National Trust, and from ancient folklore, which suggests that crows desert their colonies at the death of a childless heir to a fortune, Empty Nest symbolises shelter, the home, the birth and incubation of new ideas and wishful thinking, while referencing nature, our fragile ecology and environment. Acting as a memorial to Lord Egerton’s empty home and his own aeronautical legacy, the work offers audiences the opportunity to view the world as many of Tatton Park’s current residents do: from their nests.
Biennial visitors will be able to access the work via a staircase wrapped round the tree. Inside, views of the grounds will be obscured by a lattice-work of rhododendron branches and twigs and, while the work will be sited close to the Georgian Mansion, what will be visible will be the trees and wildlife of Tatton Park; a new sense of perspective will emerge, suggesting a ‘bird’s eye view’ of the landscape and a flight of fancy for audiences.
