Artist talk: ‘On curious ground’ with Melissa Baldwin

Currently on show is Melissa Baldwin’s ‘On Curious Ground’ a collection of canvases which reflect the found objects she has come across on her beach walks and her response to them. Tides wash up trinkets onto the sand, arranging them naturally into unexpected groups. These jewels of the ocean rest quietly, waiting for the next surge of water which will take them back out to sea. There they will toss and turn, continuing their journey around the planet to wash up again on another beach far, far away. Melissa’s work is part of a group show with ceramicist Lynda Gibbins and painter Emilie Tseronis.

Join us this Sunday, 21 February, at 2.00pm in the gallery to meet Melissa who will be speaking about her current body of work.
