Supported by Arts Council England we are delighted to be working with a team of artists who have been exploring the allotments and garden in a range of media.
There will be a chance to see the outcome of this at our exhibition weekend on the 14thand 15th October 2017, we can't wait to show you the stunning work that they have created.
Clare with some of her art
Clare with some of her Art
Clare Wassermann is an international painter and textile artist who draws on yoga, meditation and Eastern music to create layered and personal art works that tell stories. By building her pieces up Clare weaves memories, experiences and recurring symbols into her work, as well as adding depth using fabric and stitching as alternative media. Her work is inspired by the power of nature and is richly coloured and intuitive depicting internal and external landscapes. Clare is also a talented magazine and book illustrator.

Hannah at Boundary Way
Hannah Boyd works in a variety of Media exploring Materials, Public Space and Social Commentary. She has a BA in Ceramics, a Master’s Degree in Fine Art and works collaboratively with different Visual Artists, Poets and Dancers. Last year she created an art piece called Ghost Dinner Party, which can be seen here http://ghostdinnerparty.blogspot.co.uk/ and before that she engaged people in an environmental piece called Embodied Place, sectioning off an area of public land she invited people to document it and see how their perceptions of the place changed after the event. Hannah uses art to draw people’s attention towards disused environments, highlighting their overlooked potential using temporary Art, and her shared studio, ‘The Art Room’, at Newhampton Art Centre to develop her own practice and deliver varied art workshops.Click here for Hannah's Blog 
Kanj with some of her felt work
Kanj Nicholas creates uplifting clay and ceramic paintings, oil paintings and felted textiles, having gained a BA in Textile Design from RMIT in Melbourne, Australia. Growing up in Sri Lanka left her with a lifelong passion for bold, uplifting colours which are woven through her art and bind it together. She finds inspiration in nature’s shapes, textures and vibrant colours, and is a proud plot holder at a local allotment. Kanj uses a spontaneous and free approach to create her felt work, which was recently exhibited at Bantock House and mirrored her love of nature. Her future ambition is to run workshops for adults and children in felting, pottery and ceramic painting and also in cookery.

Sue Chand uses traditional methods of making to develop works of natural fibres and paper. She embraces cloth as a custodian of stories, personal stories of life changing events and how fragile yet resilient we are. Sue is interested in contrasting textures and the structure of cloth; how fragile it can appear but with strength that allows it to last a lifetime. She has developed the use of her own twisted paper yarn and woven fabrics alongside other processes and materials and this is all woven with stories. She hopes to experiment with the nature at Boundary Way to create art.Click here for Sue's Website
