This is a group exhibition by local artists that form a celebration of the Badger in the Wall Gallery which, unfortunately, will be closing after this final fling. This successful gallery will maintain its online gallery and is planning pop-up events in the area so stay tuned.

Energy

This is a group exhibition by artist members of North Yorkshire Open Studios. I will be showing my new 'ENERGY' collection of four paintings. ‘ENERGY’ is a series celebrating the four seasons, capturing the colours and elements of each quarter of my Northern homeland. This annual cycle and the lunar phases offer the energy and natural rhythms of life that touch our very bones. The fox in winter, an unfurling fern in spring, the swallows of summer and the abundance of autumn, each offer up their own thrill to us. To warm up, I start each painting with a memory of a meaningful place or of a journey. I make those strokes with purpose, colours coming first, details emerging from the visions in my mind. Interconnections are illustrated by the geometry of the spiral, the mathematics the same as that of our galaxy and shared by all forms of life. Within this form, I arrange the symbols and patterns of each season. As I paint, the emotions I am experiencing flow, forming the artwork. I create art to share my joy and wonder of our natural world. My paintings stand as a reminder of our unity with the infinite universe. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The exhibition brings together an inspiring range of 2D and 3D artworks, including glass, ceramics, paper, print, painting, textiles, bronze, and mixed media. Each piece is accompanied by a short written insight from the artist, offering visitors a glimpse into the techniques, materials, and ideas that shape their creative process.​ Drawing on subjects as vast as tectonic shifts and as intimate as moss-covered boulders, the exhibition reflects the many ways artists interpret the natural world. From moon cycles to ancient landscapes, From the Earth invites audiences to consider the forces, histories, and textures that lie beneath our feet.

I spent 12 years in Vietnam as an artist and gallery owner. I will lead us through the story of how Vietnamese art was influenced by the French colonization of Indochina, the introduction of Communism, the resulting 'American War' and the 50 year progress towards artistic freedom and a new age of Internationally recognised Vietnamese artists.

This exhibition is a collaboration between Craven Arts and Skipton Civic Society. The artists of Craven District are invited to produce new work that highlights Skipton's built heritage. I will be showing four new colourful paintings of the library, Skipton Castle, the Coach Street bridge over the canal and one of the typical clusters of houses on the banks of the Spring Canal. This is going to be a real landmark event for the Arts House and the 27 artists taking part.
