Layered Land: Time, Fragility, Repair'a solo exhibition by Barbara Dawson.

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.

Barbara Dawson's practice as an artist is activated by her connection to place, to the environment, and to natural processes evident with the passage of time. Barbara's intention is not to represent the landscape, rather it is to capture and communicate her lived experience of being in it. These are contemplative works emerging through slow processes over extended periods of time.

Dawson favours a limited colour palette in her artwork exploring tonal changes which, for her, embrace the concept of time and timelessness. Through combining and layering different procedures - reclaiming and repurposing materials, drawing, layering, dyeing, stitching - she is able to capture and communicate her relationship and concern for landscape. And remind us we are not separate from it but are inextricably part of it.

'Layered Land: Time, Fragility, Repair' will open alongside other exhibitions: '#' by Guy Morgan and 'HARD YAKKA' by UK Frederick.
