Taking place across various landscapes and locations, this speculative project builds upon a postcolonial perspective informed by technology, agency and the body, and narratives of migration.
The series builds upon ideas in Larry Achiampong’s practice whilst taking new approaches, marrying linguistic threads and an original synth-based soundtrack with open cinematic landscapes.
At an unspecified future point in time, the African Union has created the Relic Travellers’ Alliance. Amongst an ambitious set of new initiatives the programme was formed to equip Relic Travellers with space-travelling-technology. The sole purpose of this initiative was for Relic Travellers to venture outside of the African Union to retrieve vocal information left by those whom had been historically oppressed as a result of political systems such as colonisation, capitalism and globalisation. These uncovered testimonies are collected and used as a basis for the African Union to responsibly govern the future informed by a bottom-up perspective.
Relic 0, which is the prelude to the series, is a short film that moves between African and Western based vistas and focuses on specific architectures of colonialism as delivered by an anonymous narrator. These discoveries deliver poetic moments of the sublime met with increasingly harrowing tales of trauma – speaking to the sinister way that states of anxiety, fear and displacement are both generated and policed in postcolonial society. The throb of the electronic score and ringing clarity of the narrator’s testimony usher in a new landscape and temporality, born from cracks in a traumatised, apocalyptic present.
This October we shall be premiering Reliquary 2 by Larry Achiampong, the latest in the Relic Traveller series. Reliquary 2 will be available to stream online via our website from 1 October 2020 – 31 January 2021.
Larry
Paul graduated with a BA (Hons) in Fine Art in 2001. As he puts it, he then ‘fell into Graphic Design’ for several years before setting up a painting studio by Kew Bridge in London.
After several successful exhibitions, Paul became a full-time professional Fine Artist working, at first, on portraiture and then experimenting with abstract seascapes and landscapes. After a decade in London, he relocated to the Lake District with his family and gains much inspiration from the locality.
Paul’s seascapes and landscapes are inspired by the memories and experiences of a place, ‘an eclectic synthesis of place, weather and season’. Back in the studio, Paul sometimes uses photography as reference material for initial mark-making and ideas. He uses oil paint, creating depth through layers of sparingly applied pigment.
‘The paint is applied in this way to give the artwork itself a narrative and history, where the processes of its creation can be glimpsed at in places – not dissimilar to the way in which memory deals with the hazy recollection of a place once visited’
Coastal Gallery www.coastal-gallery.co.uk<www.coastal-gallery.co.uk> is delighted to feature Paul’s subtly evocative seascapes. Please contact us for prices and availability.

Jane studied Fine Art at Winchester School of Art. She combines the themes of nature and mythology to create a unique view of the landscape. Many years spent sailing around Mediterranean coastlines and islands have played a major part in Jane’s work as she continues to explore and express the depiction of her surroundings.
Using a mixture of poured paint and gloss mediums on canvas, Jane invites the viewer to enter a fantastic world of amorphous shapes and organic patterns. Combined with shockingly vivid colours, Jane captures the essence and dynamism of the natural world as she sees it.
Coastal Gallery is delighted to feature Jane’s unique work.

The art world is coming back to life. Almost unbelievably, when so much of the UK remains closed, London’s leading commercial galleries all reopen<www.artlyst.com/news/londons-galleries-and-auction-houses-to-reopen-from-15-june/#:~:text=London%27s%20Galleries%20And%20Auction%20Houses%20To%20Reopen%20From%2015%20June,-8%20June%202020&text=The%….> next week. White Cube<whitecube.com/> is to open its Bermondsey space and Mason’s Yard branch, while Gagosian launches three<gagosian.com/exhibitions/upcoming/> brand new exhibitions across its London venues. Other galleries due to open on 15 June include Cristea Roberts<cristearoberts.com/>, Hauser & Wirth<news.artnet.com/art-world/central-london-galleries-reopen-1881276> and Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac<ropac.net/>.
In the struggle against Covid-19<www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2020/apr/20/art-world-coronavirus-pandemic-online-artists-galleries>, as in a war, we’ve all suppressed some basic and obvious facts in the interests of the greater good. One is the simple truth that however much energy and ingenuity go into online alternatives<www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2020/mar/25/the-best-online-art-galleries-adrian-searle> to the living presence of art, virtual exhibitions can only ever be spectral, sadly unsatisfying substitutes for the real thing. In effect, all the online curator’s tours, video visits and newsletters have replaced art with public relations.
Take this post-covid opportunity to re-connect with real time viewing of art in real galleries !
