Josie McCoy's other worldly portraits of the stars in 11:11 exhibition at East Gallery, Brick Lane

Plymouth’s own Josie McCoy is taking part in the 11:11 exhibition at East Gallery, London.

Apparently 11:11 is a recurring ‘phenomenon’ in time and dates, and is seen as a wake up call – which seems a little late, which every way you look at it. (In our beverage-based timescale, that’s either half-way down the Mellow Birds at Elevensies, or time to brew up the Horlicks, ready for bed.) And let’s not forget Armistice Day.

Either way, the 11:11 motif has allowed the curators to pick 22 artists – ’11 broadly operating within the sphere of fine art and 11 within that of urban art range from the bold and socio-political to the subtle and poetic’.

As part of the show ‘original Britart darling Josie McCoy paints the stars of Hollywood and beyond – gazing down on us in their glorious other-worldly glow’.

• 11:11 is at the East Gallery, Brick Lane, London and runs from June 17 to June 22 from 1pm to 8pm
