I am very proud to be part of the Moths and More Exhibition at the Greenstede Gallery in the
Chequermead Arts Centre, East Grinstead. With ceramics, textiles, jewellery, and paper cuts on display, the gallery looks beautiful.

My layered paper cuts are hand cut using a scalpel. Each piece is made up of several layers and mounted so that the depth of the work is enhanced by shadows. The centre three studies are hand cut layered paper combined with ink drawings.
My Horseshoe Lake layered paper cuts were inspired by the trees in the Mammoth Lakes Area in California.

A View of London is inspired by a photo montage of views from the South bank towards St Pauls.

My hand knitted Kagome Cardigan has recently been on display at the Knitting and Stitching Shows in Harrogate and Alexandra Palace as part of the
UK Hand Knitting Association's Knitted Textile Awards. It looks great next to Jackie's Kimono and alongside Jane's ceramics!
The work in the exhibition by the Moths and More artists is very beautiful and varied.
Alex Duncan works with stitching and mixed media to make the beautiful landscapes shown here.

Jackie O'Malley's gorgeous obi belts look fantastic on the woodland inspired backgrounds and the kimono on the wall is stunning.

Jane White makes hand built and burnished ceramics which derive their colours and patterns from firing with organic material in a large open pit. Each piece that emerges from the ashes is totally unique.

Absolutely stunning designs and craftsmanship. Such a joy to see them. Thank you for this posting. I especially like the way the London paper cut draws the observer into the city-scape with all its grandeur and energy.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your lovely comments! I really enjoyed making the paper cuts. They all have multiple layers to create shadows and depth.
