Echoes and Threads
Saturday 20th April - Saturday 18th May 2024 The Main Gallery Fisherton Mill
The land is a palimpsest; carrying traces of people and their lives from deep time to yesterday. They resonate with echoes of the past. Our ancestors were audacious, committing resources and community effort to raise huge stones, build massive earth banks and craft charismatic burial monuments that intrigue and inspire contemporary human beings in myriad ways.
“Echoes and Threads” exhibition was a resting point along a journey of exploration into the mysteries and wonders of human beings’ relationships to, with and within these ancient monuments and ritual landscapes.
The underpinning desire for this work is to seek out and create connections.
The artworks shown are the output of sustained research and creative experimentation to unpick the threads that connect us all with these special places.
Inspired by the energy and beauty of sacred sites such as the Stonehenge and Avebury World Heritage Landscapes, Tamsin Loveday and uses printmaking and mixed media to explore the connections between past and present, archaeology, spirituality, folk and contemporary culture.
