A Cheap Affair artists
Beth Barlow
Beautiful Things is an art piece which aims to look at the value of objects and ask questions like whether they gain more value if selected and artistically treated by an artist. A collection of boxed pieces will be available to look at and, maybe, secretly bid on. Bids will be successful not just on their monetary value but also on what the buyers intention for the work is. As an artist Beth Barlow's work focuses as much on process as it does on product and the exhibiting of the work at this event asks the viewer to become part of the valuation process.

Cheap
Cheap started as an independent zine run by artists Tommy Eugene Higson and Nikki Marie Jackson showcasing emerging and established talents in art, illustration, design, photography, literature and other creative and visual practices. Cheap has been involved and represented in various events and exhibitions internationally and is distributed internationally.
As artists we work and exhibit both individually and collaboratively and our work addresses various subjects and themes with several constants; accessibility, relevance and aesthetics. Cheap is a reflection of these abiding concerns and an ongoing project to describe and detail developments in regards to the broader visual and creative cultural landscape in the form of products, exhibitions and events and critical writing.

Victoria Rangayah
I was always `drawn` to art but only gained courage to paint during my studies as a fashion designer. I took my knowledge of fashion and textiles and applied it to my artistic projects. Which included garments made out of paper and the use of interesting textures and mediums in my art.
Living in Africa, enabled me to see the world from a different perspective and in different colours. I admired the African landscape, which is kept alive in my memory, and from which I draw my inspiration. The experience to live in such an inspiring country broadened my horizons and developed me, creatively, as an artist. My work often portrays memories of my life there and the emotions that I have experienced...
