Exhibition: A Sense of Place

A Sense of Place is part of our year-long programme celebrating 10 years of Victoria Works Studios. Curated by Charlotte Abrahams, the theme reflects the role the Victorian building has played in the village over the last century and a half and the influence its unique location set in a beautiful, wooded Cotswold valley lined with reminders of the industrial revolution has on the artists for whom it is home.
Work will range from photographs, paintings and textile artworks to sculptural installations, furniture and ceramics. Featured artists include Fine artists Emma Cooper Key, Mandy Coppes-Martin, Rachel McDonnell, Karl Petermann, Saira Todd, Jill Watton and Rodger Williams; ceramicists Sam Lucas and Anna Simson; textile designer Lizzie Mabley; photographers Amanda Harman, Britt Willoughby Dyer and Claudia Legge; lampshade maker Lampshade Rebellion; upholsterer Katerina Gibb; illustrators Ruth Hickson and Lucia Leyfield; costumier Lara Skowronska; metal artist Lucian Taylor; mosaic artist Sadie Rowlands; mixed media artist Teresa Poole and lace maker Jane Wright.

The exhibition opens on Friday 11th October and we'd love you all to come. After the preview evening the show will be open on the weekends 12th/13th &19th/20th October, coinciding with the Autumn Arts Trail.
