Chris Lambert is a visual artist and a musician working out of a studio at Snails. He studied Sculpture at Ilam school of fine arts in Canterbury. In March 2022 Lambert held a solo exhibition in the Snails gallery called Black Mark.

Black Mark is a collection of work split into two distinct camps, charcoal on paper and oil on board/canvas. It is the obvious masculine imagery that binds this show together with man as monolith, man as landscape, man as the ground we tentatively walk in these uncertain times. The work strikes the veiwer with an iron fist desperately trying to slip into a velvet glove….undeniably powerful yet frailty and vulnerability belies this first impression

In 2021 Kirsty received funding from the Earle Trust for a project called Shifting Ground, a year long activation of art centred around Activism.     The project intends to blur the boundaries of traditional art practice and explore ways that art can be used subversively or otherwise to challenge people to think about the ideas of social change.  

Shifting Ground is a suite of projects that casts a net into the community to amplify the voices of those pushing for change.
