- RESPONSE- a reply or reaction to a stimulus

The latest artistic offering from Arteria with Gallery 23 is an intriguing fusion between art, crafts and literature. In the exhibition titled “RESPONSE” we see the inspirational works of an eclectic mix of artists and makers, and then in turn, local writers “RESPOND” to a selection of pieces to create poems which will be showcased alongside the artworks. Jane Richardson, Owner and Managing Director of Gallery 23 explains:

“We feel it is really exciting when you cross fertilize artistic practices. The results can give an unexpected and refreshing perspective on a piece of art as it is driven by another person’s interpretation and reaction to what they are seeing. A piece of art born out of another piece of art.”

3 local writers and a ceramic artist will be contributing written pieces to the event. The art and crafts on show is an enchanting mix of original wall art, inspirational photography, unique jewellery, beautiful textiles, striking sculptures, ceramics and glass.

The show runs from 20th March through to the 22nd June and will be open Monday to Friday 10am-5pm and Saturday 9.30am-5.30pm.
