The Atrium  

Even a Stopped Clock.

Katie Lee with Andrew Sainsbury

Saturday 3 June - Sunday 23 July

Katie Lee’s artistic practice is influenced by the dynamics of urban space. She draws on the interactions of humans, animals, architecture and natural forces to make her installations.

For her new work in the Incinerator Gallery’s Atrium space, Katie has engineered a suspended sculpture, made from timber, steel, toughened glass and electric fans.

Boadle Hall Community Gallery  

Cloud

Andrea Hopgood

Andrea Hopgood began exploring the idea of the ‘cloud’ just after the death of her 18 year old son.

The quiet and solitary act of painting helped her transition through the tragedy, whilst the subject matter resonated with the emotional impact of her son’s death.

Cloud investigates the parallels between the different meanings of the cloud and her own stages of grief.

Strange Music

Domenica Vavala

Opening Night: Friday, 4 August 6pm to 8pm (all welcome)

In Strange Music, a number of contemporary watercolour works depict visions of devotion from throughout the ages, yet not quite from any time or place.

Themes of sacrifice and offering manifest in Domenica Vavala’s work, representing lost belief systems and the potential for the afterlife.
