Belerion: The Shining Land

BELERION: THE SHINING LAND

A kaleidoscopic and interpretative vision of fields, flora and cliffs, this multidisciplinary exhibition showcases the colours, textures and landscapes of the West Penwith peninsula. Heavily imbued with the folklore and symbology of the ends of the land, it will focus on celebrating five different traditional skills in contemporary hands: printmaking, painting, wood sculpture, pottery and textile art.

The six artists all live and work in West Penwith, and bring with them unique knowledge and stories of the landscape: hand-thrown pottery with a narrative twist from Debbie Prosser, evocative paper lithographs and mixed media paintings by Sara Bevan, striking and bright abstract silkscreen printmaking from Graham Black, wild woodcut prints and stained-glass-like paintings by Angela Annesley, intricately cut and collaged textiles utilising hand-dyed fabrics from Amanda Richardson and open and closed sculptural forms created with unseasoned native hardwoods by Graham Davey.
