Lawrence Calver

Lawrence Calver works closely with extremely rare and beautiful textiles sourced from all corners of the world. He hand dyes, manipulates and stitches fibres together creating calm, minimal works of art. Inspiration for Calver is at times drawn from marked or stained cloth, (often leaving his found textiles in its original state), showing its own passage of time that can make the viewers eyes & mind wander, question even.

The interplay between light and shadow in the ever changing natural world is beautifully depicted in the infinite pen lines of Romanian born Andreea Mandrescu’s black pen and paper drawings. Andreea’s drawings, at first, evoke the innocent simplicity and honesty of the unspoiled environment but quickly draw the eye deeper into a far more intimate and complicated world. Tinged with the unmistakable poignancy of distance and time casting treasured memories into stark relief, Andreea invites us to explore the connection between our environment, those we love and those we have lost.
