Jewellery by Judith Brown and Ruth Moore, ceramics by Iona Calvert and textiles by Dionne Swift.
Flowerings: Artists have long revelled in the pleasure of adapting materials to record their loving understanding of living landscapes. The work in this exhibition continues this timeless of tradition of making jewellery, textiles and clay say ‘tree’, and ‘field’ and ‘flower’. Expect work that celebrates natural forms in unlikely and gorgeous materials by new and established artists and makers. The exhibition is curated by Lara Goodband.
