Hanging Grimston Exhibition


Here are some pictures from the 'Art and Archaeology Exhibition' from July 2017. 

It was a Community Arts Project, with many items of artwork on show inspired by the archaeology and landscape at Hanging Grimston, the site of a deserted Mediaeval village that was being excavated.

The theme of my work was 'the Wolds', and the colours taken from photographs of the May countryside, with the trees and fields showing fresh spring green with bright yellow oil seed rape in adjoining fields.  Dark shadows provided contrast with sheep grazing the site.





Here are two sheep hand knitted, with needle-felted bodies.


Two cushions woven with a different weave structure, and complimentary machine knitted pieces made up into pleasing examples.

The machine knitted technique is knit-weave.
