‘Verse in Vision’ -9th to 29th April
A solo exhibition at Number 8 Arts Centre in Pershore
Art with an element of intrigue incorporating poetry
“The mixed media works in this exhibition combine acrylic paint, ink and collage with poetry sourced from local writers. Lines of verse settle into the surface, sometimes emerging boldly, sometimes not immediately evident. In bringing community voices into her art, Susan creates pieces that are both personal and shared. Colour, texture and language work together to create a layered visual experience.”
A key feature of the exhibition will be a set of 7 large pieces representing Worcester Canal-side incorporating poetry about the history of our local canals by former Worcestershire Poet Laureate Suz Winspear. The poems were written for the Ring Project and commissioned by the Canal and River Trust. Suz is a former Worcestershire Poet Laureate.
The exhibition is open 9th to 29th April, Monday to Saturday 10 am to 4 pm and Evenings whenever an event/film is on.
Preview evening
The Preview Evening is on Thursday 9th April. Arrival around 7.45. Everyone is welcome.
In the course of the evening Suz Winspear will read her set of poems about the history of our local canals.
