Collaborative Exhibition
Wood Artist Eleanor Lakelin and Silversmith Adele Brereton
Wood and Metal

Exploring a mutual interest in the fragments of eroded objects and material they find on the Thames foreshore near their studios. Both artists create new narratives - reinterpreting found textures and forms in wood and silver.

‘The Language of Spoons’ — a showcase of renowned Metal Artist Simone ten Hompel is now in the gallery.⁣

⁣Hompel sees metal as her first language, strongly believing that a true understanding of any craft must come through the experience of making. Over an illustrious career, she has earned a reputation as one of the most inventive silversmiths of her generation.⁣

“Spoons are the first tools we learn to use and they are most likely the last tool we use with some dignity. Spoons are my kind of canvas where I can express this aspect of life. Alpha and Omega & all that happens in-between.”⁣
