Opening Event
15th March, 6-9pm
SÁGA // A GROUP SHOW // MARCH 15 - 29
Heather Anderson, Alix Petty, Amy Robson, Emma Stark, and Kajsa Wingerup.
This exhibition explores the nature of symbolism, and identifies common themes of family, folklore, women and self-portraiture. Through painterly images and powerful story-telling, each individual work evokes strong emotions from the viewer, whether that is through escapist self-portraits in nature (Heather Anderson - Morpheus), a multidisciplinary exploration of Northumbrian folklore (Alix Petty -Tales of Norþanhymbre), a documentary-style series examining OCD through surreal self-portraits and experimental scans (Amy Robson - The Observer), fictional photo story following two sisters that represent the earth elements (Emma Stark - Fire and Water), or a series of images representing the cyclical connection between women and nature, inspired by Celtic and Scandinavian folklore and fairytales (Kajsa Wingerup - The Divine Feminine).
Join us for a series of friendly artist talks with the exhibitors from 4-6PM on Friday 15 March, and then for the opening reception from 6-9PM.
