About
Background Studies, Hues of Labour is a guest exhibition of work in progress focussing on the independent intensity of colour, with its artificial and intrusive qualities found within working rural land. These hues amplify and isolate the identities and relationships of forms and structures encountered in the observers’ foreground. Viewed together they represent the collective background and a strategy of guidance, orientation and warning.
James will give visitors an informal introduction to the work with a walk and talk event 2 November.
