Our Opening Exhibition in Gallery Three for 2023- Ruth Jen Evans
Dros ben llestri ‘ over the crockery '
18th March to 13th May 2023
We welcome back the wonderful artist and Printmaker Ruth Jen Evans, who has exhibited extensively both in Wales and abroad.
Dros ben llestri is a Welsh idiom that literally means ‘over the crockery …the English equivalent would be ‘over the top’ as in an excessive or exaggerated way
Ruth says that most of her work in this exhibition will be inspired by Welsh pottery and crockery , from the medieval ties of Ystrad Fflur to the china collections on Welsh dressers….and possibly some ‘ over the top’ tea drinking !
Vicky Ellis – View from a Window
May 16th till July 8th
Vicky Ellis is an artist weaver making flat weave rugs and wall hangings inspired by the sea she lives near at Aberarth, and the work of favourite painters. She studied furniture design at art school where the course was heavily influenced by the Bauhaus Movement. It was only later when she began weaving that she appreciated its influence on her work. Vicky sees weaving as painting with yarn to express the excitement of colours interacting with each other, loving the opportunities that commissions offer to make unique woven responses to people, places or paintings
Gallery 3 houses changing exhibitions. Entry is free and items are available for purchase.
