A festive exhibition of beautiful handmade

porcelain lights by artist Amy Cooper.

2 2 N o v e m b e r – 1 7 J a n u a r y

Amy’s work addresses the fragility and transience of life and the natural

world through the transformative properties of light on porcelain.

She continues to explore a monochromatic spectrum that is created

through the use of textures, variation in thickness and diffusion.

The work is slip cast porcelain, each piece individually altered, either

through manipulation when plastic or painstakingly masked and

sandblasted at bisque.

Contemporary Textiles Focus

8 N o v e m b e r – 3 J a n u a r y

Presenting a range of knitted, woven, printed, felted and stitched

textiles for you and your home, this exhibition aims to showcase the

variety of techniques within the field of textiles.

The makers chosen for this exhibition are

concerned primarily with process, exploring

what can be achieved with traditional

techniques within a contemporary market.

These often repetitive techniques can be

time consuming, which many makers see

as a welcome diversion from the demands

of modern life.

All six makers perfectly

balance the visual elements

of pattern and colour with

the physical and tactile

nature of textiles.

Art-to-You home and business consultancy serviceIt is hard to visualise how an artwork will look at

home or in your office, when viewing it in the

gallery or online. This is particularly hard to do

when you have a specific space in mind, or if you

want to view a piece of art with someone who is not able to visit the gallery.

We are delighted to introduce our free Home/Business Consultancy Scheme. If

you see something you love in the gallery, we would be delighted to come to

you with your chosen art work along with some carefully selected alternatives

to help you decide which piece would work best in your environment.

Our team is happy to guide you in the process of finding a perfect art for your

home or business.
