Corrine Edwards Collection - Late Opening

Late Opening overlooking the Thames.

Join artist Corrine Edwards at our first-floor gallery for an evening of art and conversation. Corrine's mixed media work conveys her deep knowledge and interest in ancient cultures & symbols.  On show are many intriguing artworks, including; ceramic sculptures, mono-prints, etchings and mixed-media pieces. All works are original and are for sale at very reasonable prices.

There are ceramic wall plaques and sculptural pods with ancient Ghanaian Adinkra symbols impressed and carved into their surfaces, life-sized ceramic clogs embellished with bird seed textures and a human-sized crown with cowrie shell imprints replacing jewels. (Cowries were used as currency in ancient times in Ghana) All of Corrine's ceramic works are hand-built by the artist with stoneware clay, brushed with oxides and most are double dipped in a distinctive signature dry sky-blue glaze prior to firing.

Corrine's mono-prints are created by placing various found objects beneath black tissue paper and using silver inks to pick out the ghostly images, shapes and textures created. There are also some photo etchings on display.

In her mixed media media works Corrine combines a wide variety of materials and found objects, including; paper, thread, human hair, fabric even components from an old record deck! 

All in all a fascinating, highly tactile and accessible show. The exhibition continues UNTIL SUNDAY 10 MARCH
