Show Something Else

Show Something Else was an exhibition created by Diana Stainton and Dave Smith back in June.

It was held as part of the 2014 E17 Art Trail and featured an eclectic mix of contemporary artists,

illustrators, photographers, designers, makers and sculptors. All work was displayed inside the cosy

interior of their Walthamstow home.

Nino Paulito was also invited to submit a piece for the show and recruited trusty sidekick

Melissa Choong to create the collaborative piece, Troll.

Troll is a sculpture/ costume/ textile invention subconsciously inspired by the (then) imminent arrival of a new
Godzilla movie, but is also a celebration of for B Movies and Power Rangers. Hidden in the details are references
to Super Heroes including Spiderman, Lone Ranger and Wonder Woman. It also contains scraps of African fabric
which was used for my dear friend Nathatlie Bikoro's bridesmaid dresses 2 years ago, (HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!).

Melissa created a Mini Troll doll using the remaining bits of tweed and children's clothes. It also has a weighted
bottom which allows it to sit upright unassisted.

There were 15 artists displaying work in total and some of Nino's featured favourites included Pygmy Cloud's

paper sculpted bear treehouse, Hatch's pointillist hatchworks and the playfully formalist inspired photographs

by team Victoria. 

Overall, the Show Something else exhibition was a great success which received positive attendance, coverage,

and attention. Tean Nino enjoyed participating and would love to be involved again next year. We have big plans

for this project and hope to expand it in the future to create a full scale installation and interactive show.

Watch this space...
