The Carnelians are a group of visual and music artists who produce exciting new works using a variety of techniques including printmaking (ranging from screenprints, etchings to linocuts and monoprints), inks, pastels and papercuts. They have put together pieces inspired by nature, and in particular flora, especially for this exhibition to complement the beautiful gardens visitors will see on the day.
The Carnelians are:
Lynn Norton: has been influenced by the flowers she has found to create intense and vibrant works. New pieces include sea holly, abutilon and oriental poppies.
Sherry Rea: the focus of Sherry's work for this exhibition has been seedheads, dragonflies and trees. She has an innovative approach to texture, mark-making and its relationship to the subject and the interplay of light, colour and tone.
Nina Sage: experimentally layers patterns and textures taking inspiration from nature and has created new delicate works portraying gardens, butterflies and flora especially for this exhibition.
Amanda Stuart: has framed her poignant poem - 'Your Garden'- in a paper cut of Hilton's meadow flora especially for this exhibition. She will be performing some of her compositions throughout the afternoon.
