Bound to Please
Carole King and Glenn Ibbitson are returning to the Seagull gallery, Cardigan, with a selection of works representing their interest in
printmaking. For the past 15 years, they have been making prints in their studio in Newcastle Emlyn, which is
equipped with an etching press and a screen-printing bed, enabling them to produce serigraphs, dry point and
collagraphs.
As well as producing prints for wall display, Carole combines her carefully designed repeat pattern papers with her
bookbinding skills to produce beautifully crafted hand-made books which can be used as sketchbooks, visitor/address books, journals and albums.
Glenn will be showing serigraphs and a series of dry point prints entitled Fragile Creatures, representing figures who for one brief moment captured a ray of limelight but who have slipped forgotten into the shadows of time and exist now only as footnotes in other people’s biographies.
The exhibition open 3 May, Wed-Sat, 11am-4pm.
There will be a poetry evening on 18 May at 6.30 featuring Simone Mansell Broome.
