Cart is empty Carolyn Murphy has work in ‘Inkscapes’ at the Horsebridge in Whitstable, Kent. The Printmakers Council has selected and curated the exhibition, which is inspired by ideas of landscape, and a sense of place, including Whitstable itself. ‘Still Recovering’, is a collagraph which connects human activity to issues of damage and repair of the environments we share.
‘The image is based on an area near Rivington Pike, in the North West. So it’s not local to Whitstable – but it reflects on the impact of human activity on place’, Carolyn explained. ‘The damage of fire is sudden and devastating, and it often takes decades for the ecology to truly recover. It’s not just about the visible surface.’
All the work in the show is free to view and available to purchase. ‘Inkscapes’ runs from 11 – 23 September 2024 at The Horsebridge, 11 Horsebridge Road, Whitstable CT5 1AF.
There is a private view on Saturday 14 September, from 12 – 4pm, and many of the artists will be there to talk about their work. Everyone is very welcome! Opening times are: Monday to Saturday 9am – 5pm (closed Tuesdays), Sunday 10am – 4pm.
