BENEDICT RUBBRA

“This exhibition, celebrating my eightieth birthday, can be seen as an extension of the 2015 retrospective at RAMM in Exeter. The work again focuses on my technique of constructing thee dimensional forms that become the point of departure for each painting.  The structures also become the space in which I can develop ideas. In the process of the making I can manipulate and alter shapes and colours and directions of light with total freedom until a conclusion is made.

ANDREA McLEAN

“Journey-Lines unravel on the canvas. Pathways change colour. Unfolded buildings represent thoughts, ideas, and emotion. Reflections are shown as many faceted stones. The canvas is a body where miniature figures from the imagination of sleep step forward and reach for the sun and stars of realisation. Moons and dreams light the way. Layers bring clarity where new forms can be found.”

Andrea McLean studied painting at Falmouth Art School and the Slade School of Art followed by a scholarship year at The British School at Rome. She has worked as Artist in... more

ALLAN VONDRAN-DAVIES

Paintings, drawings and sculptures by Allan Vondran-Davies from 1989 to 2014.

ships and my recent paintings of Greenpeace activists address broader concerns about the

Immerse: A Swimmer’s Perspective

ANJA FISCHBACH

A life-long passion for wild swimming and the transformative power of the cold water plunge is the inspiration for Anja’s current work.

This experimental exhibition of watercolour paintings and drawings reflects her relationship with wild water and a sense of place in the natural world as she continues to explore the coast and rivers of North Devon and Exmoor in search of alluring places to take a dip.

What emerges is yet to be revealed!more

Artist's Wall Exhibition

Tanya Landman

"A warm sunset spills over a vast, violent sea. Skeleton trees are caught mid movement in the wind, their branches reaching to a moon cloaked beneath cloud. Storms, cliffs, wildlife, and even the occasional labrador are key subjects in the watercolours of Tanya Landman.

Landman’s artwork combines an ability to capture natural light in all its intricacies with a love of the landscapes around her. A distinct personality shines through in each of her pieces, from her bold, dramatic depictions of the golden hour to her subtle, hauntingly beautiful snapshots of the night.... more
