HYBRID September 2023
The theme of our most recent exhibition was COLOUR
Venue –centrespace 6 Leonards Lane BS1 1EA
Dates: Friday 8th- Wed 13th September 2023
As usual our preparation for this show involved a group curation process of shared art-making, research and discussion alongside developing our individual art practices.
In April we met for one of our regular painting days and worked on a collaborative piece. Each artist made a number of small square paintings which referenced both our group theme and their individual art practice. These were then used to make a ‘patchwork’ design for our exhibition poster .
This original collaborative ‘patchwork’ artwork was shown as part of our exhibition, alongside work that included painting, print making, mixed media and work made with earth pigments and clay.
The preview and show were both well attended with more than 500 visitors over a five day period .
