one month to go to the launch of Shifting Subjects!

Shifting Subjects
Contemporary Women Telling the self through the Visual Arts
3rd September – 31st October
Sarah Lucas | Miranda Whall | Wendy Elia
Margaret Ashman | Linda Ingham

The exhibition opens on the 2nd September at the Abbey Walk Gallery

A completed set of prints has gone to be professionally dry mounted for display in the exhibition. The film has been sent off too.  Art writer Anna McNay has written a brilliant essay for the catalogue and interviewed the artists for a catalogue Q&A piece.

more plates at the proofing stage

 I have been enjoying working on the last two plates for the exhibition. I’ve been a bit more experimental. I had fun overlaying one image with lace. It seems to add privacy, mystery, femininity and does wonders for less than youthful skin all in one go. I think I will try this plate with lighter coloured inks too. It works in black but it may work better in a pastel shade.
