Deborah Grice
All Shall Be Well
Returning once again as headline artist, Deborah presents a stunning collection of original paintings, drawings and prints.
These atmospheric landscapes in oil and charcoal, are inspired by the philosophy and aesthetics of the nineteenth century romantics, but are contemporaised with Deborah's eponymous geometric flashes of colour. The exhiibition also includes a display of Deborah's personal objects, each having some significance to her work and practice. Due to popularity there are brand new paintings added to the show for 2025.
