Somehow we have arrived at Postcards from The Line time again, a fixed
point in a year when absolutely nothing has gone according to plan and
in which the foundation of many lives has been severely threatened. We
hope that the work of the many artist participants in the Postcard show
will bring a little light to everyone.
Ronnie McInnes has written of his work 'Each of my
submitted pieces are mixed media artworks from my ongoing project
Women’s Wednesdays. The project was started in response to women’s under
representation in sport. Particularly in rugby. I focus on
internationally capped women rugby union players and each week I ask my
followers on social media to suggest players. I pick my favourite from
those suggestions to make a unique artwork about. Influenced by Pop
Surrealism, I decided to take inspiration from video games (in which
sparks, vibrant colours and patterns of light are common). By doing so, a
certain dynamism is portrayed in the work'.
We hope that this image of vigour, determination and courage will
inspire us all - and encourage you to brave the outdoors and come along
to see the show!
Postcards from The Line 2020 will open at 10.00 am on Thursday October 29 and run until 4pm on Sunday November 22nd.
Indovidual images will be posted here each day throughout the exhibition. Watch this space.
Travels in our imagination - we saw lions
In these uncertain times, how many of us would like, just for a while,
to be somewhere else? Anywhere else? Sarah Keast and Siljes Elisabet
Thorin have taken this urge to heart and created an exhibition of
travels in the imagination - what do their photographs and prints tell
us about their thoughts and dreams? Sometimes there are wonders right in
front of our noses, hiding in plain sight, and yet we do not see them -
we saw lions!
We remain unable to welcome you to an exhibition preview - but we will
be delighted to see you throughout the exhibition's run. The show will
open at 10am on Thursday October 8th and continue until 4pm on Sunday
October 25th.
Sarah will be running a day workshop on collograph and mono printing in
The Line on Sunday October 25th. Numbers will be strictly limited and
all COVID 19 protocols in place. If you would like details please email
all@thelineonline.co.uk.
