About the Exhibition: Layered Land: Time Fragility, Repair

The landscape, sea, coast, and open spaces can be powerful, emotive places of exploration, reminiscence and memories. Barbara Dawson’s ‘Layered Land’ series of drawings and textiles investigates the way a place is remembered. In the mind’s reinterpreting details are altered, omitted, and become imbued with one’s own emotional outlook.

Exhibitions run from 22 March to 14 April
