John Maltby is recognised as one of

the countrys nest ceramic artists,

his gures and creatures holding a

wit and profundity that re ect the

human condition and are

inextricably linked to the English

landscape and experience.

My work continues to draw its

inspiration from the Englishness of

my experience. Although many of the

subjects re-appear, I place them both

in a traditional continuum, yet relevant

to my contemporary condition.

Peter Jackmans works interpretlandscapes and objects within the

landscape in a semi-abstract form.

His images portray a personal

reaction to a place, in addition to

elements of the actual scene. Peters

work is created by layers of drawing

and with graphite, pastels and chalk.These layers are cut through by

scratching, scraping and overdrawing

to create a complex surface.

Alex Dewart questions the role of representation in painting, taking

inspiration from Christian icon painting, replacing religious gures

with a broader set of contemporary icons as well as more general

historical gures. Her landscape work uses structures such as bridges

which have more symbolic values attached to them.

Ursula Leach makes paintings, prints and drawings in response to the

chalk landscape of Cranborne Chase. The work is, to some extent,about current agricultural practices, but rstly is about the formal

issues of image making. Colour is impor tant as an expression of mood

and atmosphere and as an indicator of new and different crops.

As climate change takes effect there are dramatic and beautiful

changes of colour in the elds.
