Patrizio Belcampo: New Works

The Leopard

While Patrizio Belcampo’s work contains references to literature, material culture and the decorative arts, his objective in printmaking is not the illustration of ideas borrowed from those disciplines, but the realisation of well resolved images through close engagement with technique.

His interest in flatness and palette reduction came into focus during a couple of years spent investigating the possibilities of silhouette in silkscreen printing via the paper stencil. More recently he has approached the medium of stone lithography with a view to exploring new surface qualities in his work.

This exhibition presents a series of lithographs inspired by Christian symbolism as well as a preview of Belcampo’s current project, an alphabet of birds.

Winifred Hodge: ‘New Ground’

‘New Ground’ brings Winifred Hodge’s work to a new audience. For the last 20 years her landscapes have been inspired by transient light on Dales moors, and a recent move north creates further opportunity to pursue another major source of inspiration, the wonderful light around the isles of the Hebrides.
