One of my small watercolour and ink works has been included in an exhibition at Tŷ Tân Art Gallery in Hay-on-Wye. The exhibition is to raise funds for the Red Cross DEC Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal. The painting is one of a series based on the River Frome, depicting two white-throated dippers. The series explores daily encounters with the flora and fauna of this wild space in Fishponds, Bristol, as a means of personal exploration and ontological care - a work-in-progress connecting to a three-year research project concerning pastoral materialities and object-based intimacies.
The exhibition runs from Mar 24 to Apr 23, 2022.

More about the gallery:
Tŷ Tân Art was established in 2019, in Hay-On-Wye’s historic fire station. What is now the gallery’s display window was once the opening that admitted the town’s only fire engine. In the 1960s, the building served as Hay’s famous second-hand book shop, owned by Richard Booth, the renowned ‘King of Hay’.
