A series of new paintings and mixed media collages by Judith Brenner inspired by her travels in Marrakesh.

Travel is Judith Brenner’s muse. Inspired by exploration of the different hues of life to make her work, she is motivated to engage with diverse cultures, to explore antiquities, to observe the essence and structure of a foreign city, to lose herself in the rituals of its daily life. Travel provokes her to engage with life on the move. Having a limited time in a new environment, Judith creates works that express how quickly things change.

Motherhood has also taught Judith to grab each moment, and these fleeting engagements with another life have been a part of what helps her create in such a unique way. Life is never particularly settled; it’s always moving and forcing change.  Judith aims to create paintings and collages with a truth and rawness.

Events to accompany the exhibition:

Artists Talk: Sat 15 April 2.30pm. All welcome.

Drop in workshop: Wed. 19 April, 10 - 1 pm. Judith invites participants to bring in a collection of memories, old and new images and photos, in order to develop their own sketchbook diary. She will encourage you to weave your own experiences using collage and mixed media. Free - please email your interest at [email protected]
