Whether you see September as late Summer or early Autumn this month's
featured makers will prolong the sunshine. All three makers have shown here before with some success
and I have no doubt that together they will provide an admirable contrast in
both technique and creative style.
It is a pleasure to have a fine group of Claire Murray's
original figurative sculpture. They will make you smile but also reflect on the
inner self which is redolent of so much of her work. I see that she is now
using more colour in her work and this adds to the dramatic qualities of her
quirky pieces. There is literally no one else making work like this and I am
sure that these figures will generate considerable interest and comment.
Sylvia
Holmes has not had a group
of pieces here for a while. Her admirers will recognise her decorative technique
which is abstracted with subtle uses of colour and brushwork. She combines layers of texture, line and colour to create rich, evocative, tactile surfaces
on simple thrown or hand-built stoneware pieces. This is simply three dimensional abstract painting.
Kyra Cane had her
first show at Bevere in 2016 and it was very well received. She has exemplary
skills evident in her finely thrown porcelain pots. Once again we are seeing
porcelain as the ultimate clay body for tactility and luminescence. These
vessels are elegant and have great presence. Kyra is a well known teacher of
ceramics and I am delighted that she will be with us at this month's maker's
lunch to talk about her work and her creative inspiration.
Clearly there will be much to enjoy this month and I hope that our
visitors will agree.
