Britain's What's On Event Guide
inner Beauty exhibition at the LAKE gallery
Our latest exhibition at the LAKE gallery celebrates the beauty of the everyday, with a captivating collection of still life artworks each offering a unique perspective on the little things that make up a home.
With Sherliyn Halligan and Fiona Philipps
Sherilyn Halligan
Working intuitively, each of Sherilyn Halligan’s paintings emerge from her experiences, memories and observations. Bright colours, bold marks and playful textures have worked their way into her new collection of floral and interior pieces; essentially still abstract but with more defining marks.
The interior scenes resemble room sets. Familiar objects and pieces of furniture belonging to family or friends find themselves in unfamiliar settings.
Fiona Philipps
Fiona’s collection of paintings are inspired not only by her home and garden but also draw upon memories of her childhood. They explore her thoughts on both the human and animal desire to create a home and document the everyday objects that surround her, many of which have history and a story behind them. Some of the paintings are evoked by memories of the artist’s childhood visits to the homes of her grandmother and aunties and uncles – the days of family get togethers.
The gallery will be hosting a preview evening on Thursday 27th June between 6pm and 8pm, and all are welcome. Fiona and Sherilyn will both be joining us in the gallery for the evening so do come along to meet them.
You’ll find the LAKE gallery in the heart of West Kirby, a couple of minutes from the train station.
