I always enjoy writing exhibition ‘blurbs’. Distilling months – or years – of the creative process into something that can be summed up in a few paragraphs. If it works, it shows that the idea is strong and can be communicated clearly – real similarities with architecture in fact.
After hanging another 20 panels on Saturday, I’ve realised that the installation at Oriel y Parc is completely impossible to photograph as they never stop moving in the gentle West Wales breeze!
A full morning hanging Ian McDonald and my exhibition in the Tower at Oriel y Parc.
Looking forward this week to hanging my first joint exhibition with my talented other half Ian McDonald at Oriel y Parc gallery in St Davids. It’s a large-scale installation and a collaborative effort between us – and everyone who has spent time in Pembrokeshire. If you have any fond memories of special times or places in Pembrokeshire, let me know and they could be immortalised on one of the 84 porcelain panels that we are in the process of creating.
My handmade cards are ready for when the Newport Collective gallery re-opens this summer. They feature decals of elements from Ian McDonald’s striking black-and-white prints of north Pembrokeshire on recycled porcelain, card and paper.
I’m delighted that once lockdown has ended, the East Gate Gallery in Pembroke – at the east end of Pembroke High Street – will be stocking my handmade cards based on artist Ian McDonald’s prints, which they also show.
