The exhibition is inspired by the littoral the margin of land between the low and high tide. From the dramatic tidal flows of the river Avon and the Severn Estuary to coastal regions of Northern France and Sweden each artist has searched for some personal connection with these landscapes. Appropriately enough the shows being held at Bristols CREATE Centre sited beside one of the most dramatic tidal ranged in the world. The transient nature of these tidal marginal areas continually in a state of flux is a rich source of symbolism and metaphor for the endless repetitions in our lives the passing of time and the psychological and physical imprints our life experiences leave on us explains artist Anna Harley.

A program of connected workshops and events will be running on most Saturdays during the exhibition including a papermaking demonstration by Peter Ford and a reading and booksigning by the recipient of the current T.S.Eliot Prize for poetry Philip Gross. A detailed programme of events times and dates is listed below as well as a map that shows you how to get to Create. To book yourself in to a workshop or talk follow this link to the Create website on http createbristol.gov.uk 2010-7-17 15:27:49 http://www.annaharley.com/page7.htm#70588 Here are two prints I completed this week for the Littoralmarks from the margins exhibition at Create in Bristol this September Both images are photographic in origin and screenprinted on to Japanese paper using only the mud from the River Avon as pigment. Your comments and feedback are most welcome The first print is of water at high tide and the second of mud at low tide in the New Cut. The New Cut is the body of water that runs between the Create gallery where the exhibition will be located this September and Spike Island Print Studio the studio in which I make my prints. The pedestrian walkway along the New Cut is nicknamed The Chocolate Walk by the local population partly because of the colour of the water and partly due to the areas associations with Frys chocolate factory. More about the New Cut this is a large canal system that was excavated just over a hundred years ago to absorb the tidal flow and convert the former course of the ... 2010-7-17 09:09:14 http://www.annaharley.com/page7.htm#69691 The next show I am taking part in Surface Patterns is opening this Friday 9th July at Centrespace in Bristol. An interesting exhibition with a mathematical focus I have three pieces in the exhibition Golden Mistletoe left is one of them This is a curated exhibition showing recent work by a selection of Spike Island printmakers the studio that I make my prints in. Information about the exhibition Our world is full of shapes which combine to from repeated patterns ranging from simple structures to perceptual struggles. Spike Print Studio shows that through drawing and use of colour or imagery pattern can be innovative and interpretive. This exhibition reveals how individual styles can us commercial or craft based approaches to produce pattern as fine art. 2010-7-6 18:58:43 http://www.annaharley.com/page7.htm#69687 Recent work has just been taken down from the Kulturglimtar exhibition in Kopparberg Sweden this weekend. My agent mother has told me sales were good over the weekend thanks again for all the time and effort you put in to this Mum. Sorry I couldnt be there as well it would have been really interesting to meet the other artists taking part and to thank Eva Wilkman in person for inviting me to exhibit with her and for organising the Kulturglimtar event. Looking forward to visiting Kopparberg at the end of the month though. It seemed right and proper to exhibit the Copper Birches series in Kopparberg an old copper mining town in Central Sweden. These prints were made using finely ground copper pigment artist grade to prevent oxidisation. What I particularly like about the screen printing process is that you can use any print medium that will fit through the screen mesh. This week I have been working on two photographic images of water and mud using mud from the river the ph... 2010-7-3 18:24:43 http://www.annaharley.com/page7.htm#69556 I had a lovely time at the Private View of the Society of Women Artists annual exhibition last Wednesday. I have been invited to become an associate member of the Society so can now add ASWA after my name Thanks to Jan Dad Maggie Robert Bess and Carmel for coming along to join in the celebrations. It was very interesting to be a part of such an enormous exhibition at such a prestigous galley and I felt very proud to see my prints hanging alongside work of such a high standard. 2010-6-30 07:36:31
