Outside in

Artists place high value on drawings and sketches. They form part of a process which constantly inhabits the artist's mind. Instead of fixing the flow of imagination, drawing keeps the mind in flux creating a sense of limbo; a conceptual space where ideas develop.

In her handmade tepee studio, Frances Law has created a 3 dimensional sketchbook of ideas. Working on site, observing and collecting material from the woodland around her and drawing on archaeology and her own memories, she presents her findings. These refer to a world not yet discovered, nor yet understood; tantalising our curiosity and feeding our imagination.

"Outside in" forms a primary means of expression, a direct form of communication exposing the magical and secret world that is the mind of the artist.
