INTO THE BLUE : A mixed exhibition
This time of year brings with it the promise of long, warm days and expansive blue skies. Reflecting the seasonal mood, INTO THE BLUE is a vibrant mixed exhibition that explores colour, atmosphere and place through a diverse range of styles and subjects, from surrealism and graffiti to abstraction and more traditional land and seascapes.
The exhibition features many of the gallery’s resident artists – Mark Fielding, whose work captures water-based scenes, alongside Ben Lucas, known for his atmospheric coastal paintings. Joe Webster presents his distinctive graffiti-inspired works, while Emma Carter Bromfield brings bold interpretations of well-loved local beaches
