Have a look at the calendar text here to see what's coming up.
The wild elements of Cornwall captured in clay, silver, glass
and paint. Bringing together four local artists who use their chosen mediums to
express what living in Cornwall means to them, to create an exciting new
exhibition.
Lucy Joines’ playful ceramics are beautifully
decorated with underglazes and gold lustre to depict the wildlife of moor and
sea. Her illustrative designs capture a magical world and each and every one is
unique.
They will be displayed alongside striking jewellery
by Laura Drayson. Silver and semi-precious gemstones are combined to create
sculptural pieces, inspired by the textures and history of the Cornish coast.
Adorning the walls will be fused glass art by
Niko Brown and uplifting abstract landscapes by Fiona Cant.
Niko’s art is influenced by childhood memories
of playing in nature and the joy and fun this brought her. She creates bold
statement pieces that combine the simplicity of shape, with the subtlety of
colour and light that can only be created with fused glass.
Fiona Cant’s work draws on the healing power of
nature and how being in wild places can make a person feel. Using mixed media
and an intuitive approach her work aims to capture the sense of freedom and
aliveness that being in nature evokes.
