The Theme: Dreaming Of The Future.
In these times of huge upheaval socially, financially and politically we are all facing a future of a different shape from the past we are walking from. While there is much reason for fear and tension there is also an indomitable human spirit for survival and a powerful restorative force of Mother Nature. Both these ‘influencers’ can be ‘vaccines’ for strengthening our humanity as we move forward into this uncharted territory.
The artists have been selected, the works are all hanging in the gallery. There is a wide variety of expressions around this theme and now the exhibition is open for viewing it is a very stimulating discussion about some visions for our future.
The exhibition will also be available on The Surface Design Association web page as a virtual exhibition. https://www.surfacedesign.org/
