PINK SHED SUMMER EXHIBITION 2023
by Chelsea Vivash & Nancy Willis
PINK SHED EXHIBITION July 30th & August 6th 2023
For this exhibition, Nancy and Chelsea have created a new work bringing together their shared appreciation for texture, colour, and craftsmanship.
Chelsea works primarily with the woodworking technique of marquetry to create contemporary artworks and mirror frames.
Her subtle abstract shapes make a perfect home for Nancy’s characters, giving them a new landscape to inhabit.
We are delighted to show two new works by our dear friend Clare McGee. These detailed abstract paintings express her thoughts and feelings during a period of ill health.
‘They feel like all my thoughts about this illness… a part of processing my new life’
