Lancashire Library Open 2024
The exhibition theme is ‘How does the library inspire you?’
Libraries and books are the cornerstone to my work. They act as a valuable resource and inspiration. A portion of my work is focussed on my love of Lancashire Poetry.
The central panel is an extract from the Lancashire poem ‘Pennine Ramble’ written by Ebron, first published in “A Lancashire Miscellany”, a newspaper column featured in weekend editions of the Oldham Chronicle between 1956 and 1959.
My own words around the outer border depict a memory from my childhood of visiting my Grandparents in Stacksteads, Lancashire. Designed in Spring 2021 during lockdown in the UK. Cotton cloth eco printed with plants from my lockdown garden.
Update: September 25th 2024
