Meadowlands 

Meadowlands May 8th  - July 5th 2020

An online exhibition in these unusual times. As with all of our exhibitions this year this is tied with the theme of finding happiness. For many people connecting with nature is part of that process.

​This show collects a number of artists whose work is inspired by the beauty of wild meadows. All these beautiful items are available to buy and we appreciate your support for us and the artists even more at this time.
​

Anna Cook

Anna is an artist based in York specialising in paper cutting. The work she has produced for this exhibition is all based around the wildlife and wildness of meadows. Amazingly each piece is cut entirely by hand and painstakingly put together to make these beautiful original works.

Maggie Magoo designs

Carole of Maggie Magoo Deisgns says 'My work for this exhibition has been inspired by memories of walks in the Yorkshire countryside, through fields of flowers, butterflies & moths. There is something very uplifting about seeing wildflowers scattered across a meadow. I wanted to capture the riot of colours & shapes that are found through my embroidery art. Each piece is sewn by hand & I hope I've managed to convey the joy flowers give me.

Environmental issues are important to me and we need to protect our meadowlands. With that in mind I will be donating 10% of the profit of every hoop sold to Yorkshire Wildlife Trust.'

Liz Cooksey

Liz’s inspiration comes from natural habitats; hedgerows, garden boarders and, of course, meadows. She creates shapes and structure with wire and copper in which she combines delicate fine crochet in a varied palette of subtle colours. In her more recent work there has been a development from mainly framed relief pieces to free standing three-dimensional work, to represent the ground the forms grow in.​

Sue Dunne

Sue's work directly reflects her year-round fascination with natural history, particularly plant-life when it's wild. Over the months, seasons and years she has created a library of records in the form of ceramic moulds of pressed flowers, twigs, seeds, leaves, berries and feathers. Sue is inspired to work with something as beautiful, but so flimsy and transient, as a flower  and give it more permanence in her ceramic work.
