Until June 2nd Maybe a Vole host work by Cher Morresey, Stewy Stencils and Phil Miller. There is also work by Vole’s permanent residents.

Cher Morresey is originally from New Zealand, Cher began her creative journey as a painter. She was introduce to assemblage art in 2006, on a visit to her artist brother 
(Lynn Morresey). Lynn was living with Motor Neuron Disease and had lost his fine 
motor skills, leaving him unable to hold a paintbrush. He had started making  
assemblages and was greatly influenced by Dale Copeland. Intrigued, Cher further  
researched And in 2008 began producing her own assemblage work. Psychology a theme Cher often returns to, she describes her work as presenting the ugliness of human nature in beauty; examining stereotypes, gender roles, relationships, sociology and fertility. 

Stewy is local stencil artist from the Dalston/Stoke Newington area. His works form an expanding library of ‘life size’ hand cut stencils representing a series of  
indigenous British animals and cult icons created in and around the UK since 2007. The ‘animals’ are specifically placed within an urban setting and are occasionally at odds with their surroundings.

Phil Miller is a freelance artist, photographer and film make, based in Stoke Newington. The photographs are developed by marrying imagery together through projections and multiple exposures to create new imagery and stories. A cat in New York over looks the beach at Cannes far removed from its usual habitat becomes a voyeur gazing over its new surroundings.

Maybe a Vole hosts a window host a display by Anna Sulan Masing,-From the Jungle. The display combines image projection, on a journey through dalston and shoredtich captured by the photographic eye of Katherine Leedale. From the Jungle is a project telling the story of migration, identities and home belonging to women from South East Asian backgrounds. The display will be on show until May 26th and runs in conjunction with Masing's exhibition and cabaret styled show, held at the Victorian Vaults in East london.
