DRAWINGS, PRINTS & ETCHINGS

Zoe Schieppati-Emery - Traditional prints exploring a range of techniques and materials,

investigating the boundaries between 2 and 3 dimensional representations

Anna Toppin - This series of prints is about revelation; the deceptively simple shape

of the Kimono opening up to reveal a lining composed of complex imagery

Ann Mary Gollifer - Monoprints by the artist in Botswana, exploring the condition of

being an exotic in the exotic, history and identity, both personal and collective

Janelle Humphreys - Graphite frottage (rubbings) with a sense of play, closely connected

to mathematics: her paper often unfolds in a Fibonacci sequence

Paraskevi Plevri - A collection of blue ink Biro drawings illustrating the olive trees

from the island of Crete the emerging young artists native land

SCULPTURE, CERAMICS & METALWORK

Annie Parker - The human face is an endless source of fascination and inspiration

for this sculptor. It reflects the whole of humanity, and is a compulsion that she

recreates in her stonework

Philip Booth - Sculptural work exploring the flow of imagery midway between

abstraction and figuration - focusing on our relationship with the natural world

Anna Barlow - Hyperrealist ceramics of our childhood confectionary delights

– ice creams, cakes, pies – frozen in time for our nostalgic appreciation

Claire Malet - The inspiration for the artists reclaimed metal pieces come from nature

and the characteristics of the various materials she works with
