Iconscapes explore the essence of place and
result from repeated visits to a landscape.
Paintings evolve over time and are resolved when
a sense of feeling of familiar space is attained.

We also have the return of Jan Griffiths wonderful ceramics and Liz Callender’s beautiful and original jewellery.

We welcome the local partnership of Victoria Goldsmiths to the Arts Centre. Victoria Goldsmiths, work in a variety of exciting mediums from silver to platinum to diamonds. Their silver pieces focus on organic shapes and texture exploring the metal to create unique and exciting effecrs.

Kate’s beautiful glass jewellery comes to the Arts Centre for the first time.

Sharon has a fascination with interpreting and emulating the richness of the past and the ravages of time. To produce relics of things that might have been, when we talk about inspiration for textiles.
We often think of something visual – colours, patterns or texture, but for her, there is another way, words, (literature) are the inspiration behind her work, which some might find ironic as she herself is dyslexic.

Fiona’s work explores the relationship between natural and organic form and its translation through the use of differing materials.
Focusing on marine life to present her jewellery,through movement,the use of camouflage,or the ability to be hidden partially. Her new work explores natural and organic form with emphasis on texture line and form. Developments look at movement through erosion. She will be availabe to meet on Saturday 15th March 12-2pm at Havant Arts Centre.

Charlie has returned to us with her beautiful silver jewellery just right for that special occassion she will be at the Arts Centre until the end of March.

Distinctive, vibrant glass to adorn & enhance your windowsills, walls, and wardrobe. Jenefer is interested in how colors and textures interact within the glass. Mainly self-taught, her style developed as she focused on capturing light within the layers and colors of glass. She work’s with sheets of colored glass, layering many shapes and colors in one-off, original designs, then fusing them at 800°C in her kiln. Carefully controlled cooling relieves internal stresses, ensuring a durable finished piece.
Most pieces go through several kiln cycles, as I shape the piece or add more layers of glass.
