| 6th June – 23rd June | Suzanne North&Doug Binder | Suzanne North was born in Huddersfield and became a professional sculptor in 1998. She works mainly with Serpentine and Delabole Slate and metal casting, recently adding perspex to the medium. Her fascination lies with matter, energy and the beginnings of life .Her use of perspex has brought a new kind of energy to her work enlivening it even more. her work has been shown nationally and she was recently asked to work a piece of stone from Barbara Hepworths studio, which now in the Wakefield Art Gallery Collection. Doug Binder was born in Bradford and shunned international stardom in the 60s to follow his original interest in representative oil painting. He studied with Hockney at the Royal College of Art and is now Director of Dean Clough Galleries. Alfred Hickling of the Guardian said of his work “small, yellowy and glorious. All of them feature a hazy nude, but the real subject is the joyful elan with which Binder makes molten, amber paint look as luminous as a supernova” Need one say more! |
 | Sudio Glass fromSteve Robinson | I became hooked on glass in the early 1990s and went on to complete a glass degree at the University of Wolverhampton. For me the beauty and fascination of glass lies in the interplay with light, and the resulting illumination of the colour within. I love the ability to look into the glass and see miniature galaxies of bubbles, vibrant colour and texture – I guess I’m just a colour junkie! I work in kiln-formed glass, fusing layers of glass with enamel colours. Much of my inspiration for the pieces I create comes from the natural world. I am originally from Scotland, and love the gorgeous marine colours and textures of the West Highland coastline. I am now based in Pembrokeshire on the Welsh coast, where the landscape and history continue to fuel my creative imagination. |
