This exhibition brings together for the first time painting, print, and drawings by four women artists:  Annie Burrows, Zinta Jaunitis, Ilona Pimbert, and Marigold Plunkett.

Fitzrovia Gallery presents Making Her Mark. Offering a window into their individual and collective journeys, the exhibition communicates ways in which these artists use mark making and painterly expression to explore themes of transience and dichotomy.

For these artists, the act of mark-making is not just a creative process, but a means of articulating and expressing the female experience. Through their chosen mediums line, form, and colour converge, communicating nuanced stories and emotions, and creating a visual language that speaks to the tensions of the artist's inner and outer worlds.

Together, these artists create a rich, multifaceted conversation through their collective experiences, inviting the viewers to explore their own responses and personal connections.

Artist ( Description ): 

Annie Burrows
Using the body as a starting point Annie’s practice is based on a drawing process that expands into print.  She re-presents the body to reveal the quiet beauty that sits close to the abject whilst also acknowledging diverse feelings that we may have about our bodies. This in turn suggests rich and complex tensions between notions of beauty and revulsion.

Zinta Jaunitis
Zinta’s practice is centred on drawing, blurring the boundaries between experience and imagination to create story fragments and dreamlike, open-ended narratives. She delights in fluidity, using formats and materials which allow for movement and invite the viewer into a dialogue, Zinta uses the leporello (folding) format to create layered and three dimensional approaches to storytelling.

Ilona Pimbert
Ilona is a painter and printmaker living and working in London. She creates landscapes from observation and imagination, and scapes that invite the viewer into an abstract world filled with texture and colour. She constantly returns to trees, water, the sea, the rain, the sky, the wind, the sun, the stars, the human body - anything that speaks of the elements and the universe. Ilona likes to think in light, colour, movement and energy. Her work celebrates nature in a non linear, circular way.

Marigold Plunkett
Marigold is a painter-printmaker, working from her studio in Kent. She was awarded an Arts Council Grant in 2023 to further her painting practice. The resulting body of work draws upon inner and outer landscapes for inspiration, intuitively developing her compositions through the use of colour, form and line.  This way of exploring mark-making and self-expression is a new and exciting part of Marigold’s practice; looking beyond what is in front of her to confront what lies beneath.
