Lorraine Robson will be joining us in the gallery to discuss her current exhibition, Tidal. She will be talking a bit more about her process and influences behind the exhibition.
The event is free however booking is essential.
Derived from of a sustained period of research and development between 2020-2022, this new body of work reflects Robson’s need for a period of peace, calm and reflection.
The primary reductive motifs used within her work reference the natural world, land and sea. Robson produces moulds in rubber and plaster to facilitate the production of handcrafted ceramic vessels and original plaster and resin sculptures. She has also been experimenting with directly casting from life, which has added a new dimension to her work.
A reoccurring motif within Robson’s work is the mussel shell. A two-piece natural form observed and collected from beaches. Robson has remodelled the forms in clay and plaster before recasting, cutting, joining and altering, reducing the shape and texture into its most basic form at variety of scales to create either simple or complex wall relief arrangements.
