Exploring the stillness and the motion in water and earth as two elements present not only in nature but in ourselves. With this work Elisa shows the constant interaction between the quietness and movement in emotions, memories, thoughts and other events we experience every single moment. This insight takes the form of Landscapes and Seascape which is embodied in her whole process of, “Where what is seen outside and felt inside merge in a painting”

This new exhibition of Andrew Burns Colwill’s is subtle, reflective, not obvious – a viewer has to work at his painting and is rewarded with hidden insights, environmental, political and social commentary and humour.

The landscape in which we live, meet and work is a northern landscape largely shaped by cloth. Distinctive weavers cottages line the canals and perch on hillsides, tall mill chimneys dominate the valleys. We meet in a grand and richly furnished manor house created by mill owners, exhibit and seek inspiration and materials at converted mills in Yorkshire, Lancashire and Cumbria. Some of us have mill workers in our ancestry, weaving in our memories and in our blood.
