Exhibition Openings at two galleries this week

This week sees the opening of two exciting exhibitions both featuring my prints: On Thursday 6th July The Ardent Gallery in Brecon previews its Open Exhibition with a wide selection of 2 dimensional works. ' Hafod Sentinel' was created for an Aberystwyth printmakers exhibition inspired by the Hafod Estate in mid Wales Glenn will also be exhibiting in this show. 8th July sees the launch of Oriel Crics Summer Exhibition of Printmaking and ceramics. They will be including a selection of pieces from my series of landscape pieces which combine pictorial elements of the landscape with 2 dimensional representations of social and industrial history. They bring together layered collagraph prints inspired by tiny sections of Ordnance Survey maps, with overprinted original maps, pamphlets documenting geographical surveys of South Wales, recycled books of local history and other ephemera. These works interweave elements from local industry, traditional welsh quilting designs and patterns created by fields, roads and geological strata.
