Migle Backovaite, The Last Supper ( 2011 )
Although the theme is derived from the religious context, these series of images are the modern interpretation of what has been seen and experienced through the work of other artists rather than just replication of the historical scenario.

Willie Nash
Willie Nash has enjoyed a life-long passion for photography. Since his early teens he has been experimenting with photography on a wide variety of projects, both personal and commercial. His photographs, often richly-colored, present the subject insuch a way that it is lifted from the "everyday" and onto another plane. Through the use of created enviroments, related objects, and lighting, he forges the "unwritten story" that takes place in each of his photographs.

- What resources do you need to open a contemporary art gallery in London? Inexhaustible reserves of energy, a network of friends willing to help out on a voluntary basis, and a healthy dose of chutzpah probably helps. Surprisingly, though, you don't need much money - it's mainly down to hard work and the availability of a suitable space. Which can even be the domestic walls! Aspiring art dealer Fay Sebel started turning her house into an occasional art gallery in February, initially as a gesture of encouragement before her painter friend Ting-An Ling's Final Year show at Saint Martin's. Since then "La Maison de Fay" has hosted exhibitions by emerging artists Caroline LS Chang and Nelson Santos. Upcoming shows include works by Carole Soulas, Migle Backovaite & Willie Nash. Stay tuned!
