JOINT AND SEVERAL EXHIBITION
Visit a brand new collaborative exhibition by Kim Coley & Mel Davies in our atmospheric Spinning Mill Loft.
For many years Kim & Mel ran a Life Drawing Class within the Spinning Mill Studios.
“One exercise made us curious about the nature of cooperation. You might know the one, in which everyone moves round the room and draws on each other’s work. A different quality emerged from these drawings, a visual dialogue started to take shape, the marks appeared less anxious, more layered, and of course there was no absolute ownership.
We decided to take this idea further by drawing and painting together, to see what would happen. This has been going on for two years now and an instinctive rhythm, melody and harmony is emerging.
Tuesday – Sunday 10:00 – 16:00 until Sunday 21st September | Spinning Mill Loft
