I’m pleased to be taking part in a new, artist led, pop-up gallery in Wilton, Wiltshire. The Ground Gallery is based in what used to be the Wilton Carpet Factory. The buildings were regenerated to become Wilton Shopping Village, and is now undergoing further refurbishment as The Guild. There will be a mixture of independent and national brands ranging from carpets, shoes, interiors, lifestyle and beauty, as well as serviced office space. Ground Gallery was originally a conventional, commercial gallery, but for a variety of reasons the owners handed it over to the exhibiting artists to manage. Since then, some have left and others stepped up to replace them, including me.
We have painters, jewellers, textile artists, ceramicists, glass artist and other makers. I’m the only printmaker so far. At least two of us are also writers.
I’m concentrating on showing current work, although I do have a bargains box, with a range of older digital pieces, which I would rather see on someone’s wall than lying around in my spare room gathering dust.
The detailed images include a new edition of Risograph prints, available in the gallery, both framed and unframed. I aim to add them to the shop as soon as possible.
The gallery is open 11.00 am to 3.00 pm Thursday to Sunday. Most weeks it is open on at least one other day, and is often open for longer hours too. I’m there next on 15th August and every other Friday after that. If you are in the area, pop in for a chat.
