Conversations with Water


Conversations with Water
June, the month of festivals and the longest day, we anticipate summer flowers bursting with colour against a backdrop of blue skies and warm sunshine but what has June 2012 delivered?  Rain, rain and more rain. A relief for the south of England in that reservoirs are reasonably full again but for others too much rain has meant severe flooding and all the misery that goes with it. Without a doubt the topic of water in some form will have cropped up in conversations throughout Britain.

'Conversations with Water' is the title and theme for our next exhibition at Farfield Mill, Sedbergh in November.  It was chosen for the connection between water and the woollen mill and not the rain but it will be interesting to see if the wet weather has influenced any of the work!

Exhibition runs from 17th November - 31st December 2012
