'Presenting the work as we find it, out sourcing, resourcing and trading up.'
The first in an ongoing series of works, Clay Arlington's "S/S 2014" sources material for making sculpture by negotiating the purchase of scrap metal from itinerant foragers working in and through the city of London, who utilise valuable scape metals as a means of off radar trade and barter. The items sourced by Arlington will depend entirely on the materials found or intercepted by the scrap metal foragers.

Mud and Water
'Industry Painting (Ceramic mould making studio, Stoke-on-Trent)', 2013
16/12/13 - 7/3/14
JACK BRINDLEY, CLIVE BOWEN, JANE BUSTIN, MICHAEL CARDEW, EDWIN BEER FISHLEY, THE GRANCHESTER POTTERY, JESSICA JACKSON HUTCHINS, BERNARD LEACH, JANET LEACH, KATE NEWBY, CHRIS PRINDL, GIDEON RUBIN, NICOLA TASSIE, JESSE WINE, MIZUYO YAMASHITA
Despite a recent tendency to see ceramics and the modern British art movement as separate disciplines the two are closely interwoven. The approaches of artists working in clay such as Bernard Leach, considered the father of the British studio pottery, and Michael Cardew mirrored the Modernist ideas gaining currency in Britain in the early 1920’s in both painting and sculpture. Post war art in Britain drew upon - amongst other things - the tradition of the handmade. This is especially true in St Ives where Bernard Leach chose to set up his first pottery. Leach united the classical pottery traditions of Asia including their taste for imperfections with those of English slipware potters to define the modernist vernacular revival.

Mythological Proportion
The three artists in this exhibition have taken on the challenge to experiment with the promiscuity of one space to parallel their own different practices. In twisting perception by reversing scale and playing with inverted mediums in order to blow the myth of representation, they all have a special interest in teasing the familiar and the hierarchy of systems.

*A proposal to design and gift a series of tattoos of the word ‘forever’. The ‘Forever Portfolio’ will be given to a tattoo parlor of our choosing, and the cost of the tattoo will be covered by BC System. Tattoos can either be booked via the BC System phone number or be chosen unawares at the parlor by a member of the public. We will supply a budget to pay the tattoo artist. Each work is authored as an original piece of BC System work. This process continues until the budget has run out.

Jack Brindley: CANS

You can call it padobe, fibrous cement, or building a house of cards. This slurry baffled back into a mixer’s blades could displace sand, lottery tickets and phone books—55 gallons of lost contacts, last chances—scurrying an R from 2 to 3. Whether materializing de-publishing, or squeezing out the soft fleshy bits of fruit, to pulp entails the extrusion of an average, the bringing about of a multiplicity from concentrate, and the desaturation of color in the act of qualitative leveling. Handmade, handheld, miniaturized (12 oz.), the best of branded output is both an airtight vessel and a sluice for two types of liquidity. CANS.
