Both the work on show at The Lanchester Gallery in Coventry, and the work that will be on show during the Southwell Open studios October 17th - October 19th, are the outcomes of a number of long walks across North Wales, North Yorkshire and The Pennines. The photographs show the drawings in development, both made on location and in the studio in Southwell, Notts.
The drawings are made with compressed charcoal, which is much blacker than willow charcoal. The material is pushed around the paper, smudged, brushed and rubbed away. Revealing images of photographic quality produced using gestural dynamic marks. Creating handmade special effects that reflect the unpredictability of weather and the natural beauty of nature and its changing conditions.
The images above are examples of some of the work on show in both these recent exhibitions.They were originally exhibited at The Workhouse Museum in Southwell, Nottingham in an exhibition curated by myself. The project was funded by Coventry University and The National Trust, and aimed to draw together to contrasting groups of people in the Southwell community from The Workhouse Museum and The Artspace Southwell.
