WE ARE FLOATING IN SPACE

11 Feb - 3 Jun
Across both Newlyn Art Gallery and The Exchange

A group exhibition of artists who have made work in Cornwall and Devon using ideas of the coast or the materials of the shoreline. In particular, it’s the space between the tides; the area that is in flux between being land and being sea, a constant state of fluidity.

The lower gallery at Newlyn hosts Cornish Maids, a space initiated by Fran Rowse that welcomes female artists from Cornwall coastal towns to celebrate Cornish womanhood and unapologetic femininity.

KEITH WOODHOUSE

The second son of artists Roger Hilton and Rose Hilton, Keith changed his name in 2010.

Having been confined in psychiatric hospitals for 23 years and a care home for eight, Keith Woodhouse has continued to write and paint. The smaller pictures in this exhibition are based on memories of these places.

All works are for sale.
