This exhibition of paintings is inspired by the beautiful British coastline, and captures the relationship between the land and the sea with its ever-changing colours, light and atmosphere.

Equally as evident in these works is the emotional response to the landscape. 

“I aim to capture the essence of a scene through the abstraction of colour and light. The colours work in harmony to capture a moment in time. 

Whilst the moment is transitory, the mood evokes elemental connections we have with places that feel eternal – this  [ our relationship with coastal landscapes] is an aspect of Mike’s poetry that impresses me”.

A chance meeting  between the artist Sue Walsh with the poet, Mike Penney, led to this exhibition, a collaboration between artist and poet.

The exhibition will run between 13 July and 3 August 2021

You can view some of Sue’s work here in our online gallery, but no new pieces have been revealed yet! 🙂
