Tim founded Uredale Glass in 1981.
His passion for colour found a new canvas, as his relationship with
this fascinating material grew. Most of his work has been freeblown
in the traditional manner with no moulds used, just the skill of
eye and judgment of experience. Maureen’s interest in textiles combined with Tom’s
love of colour, produces work that is vibrant, flowing and constantly
evolving. They have developed products from small gifts, to tableware
and lighting. A classic selection of bowls and vases, as well as
one off pieces for the collector/investor. Tim also works to commission
in stained glass and more recently has developed a range of glass
which combines freeblown work with kilnformed techniques in a way
that enhances the medium in a unique way. |

Margaret and Rod are photographers
living and working in Horton in Ribblesdale, near Settle. Margaret
and Rod’s images
encompass a wide variety of photographic media and techniques. While
much of their work uses mainstream conventional darkroom and digital
methods, it also pushes at the material boundaries of the photographic
tradition to produce compelling visions of the contemporary landscape.
While Margaret employs a precise focus to produce intimate, often
textured pieces, which reshape the visual world through an attention
to detail, the pared down aesthetic of Rod’s large-scale shots
creates a series of photographs which, even when they exclude the
human form, map the shifting topographies of time and human relationships
against the landscape in which we live. |

Sarah Smith is a sculptor working mainly
in stone and clay. She likes to use what comes from nature - in
the earth. She works the stone that surrounds her whether that
is the sand and limestone from her home in Yorkshire or the marble,
alabaster and travertine when she travels abroad. Her background
is in figurative sculpture and the traditional method of learning “to see” through
the study of the life model. The influences of the sculptor Alan
Thornhill and past modern masters such as Constantin Brancusi have
helped shape her thoughts on sculpture and how to pursue her ideas.
|
| |
Since moving to Selby in 1994, her career
has followed the public art path. Works have included carved
brick wall based relief panels, cast relief floorscapes and
decorative paving, also carved wood and stone. Most recent
works have been in cast iron. Ideas and influences come from
a range of sources: the still life, and the nature that survives
despite man’s evolution, are responsible
for many ideas which often use historical references. The motivation
is the opportunity to make and place works of enduring quality in
the environment. Works which enhance, inform, cause discussion or
debate and have a relevance to people’s lives. |
| |
Peter’s work is motivated by an urge
to investigate different uses of stone in a contemporary art context
and to address the issues and images of modern life. An important
aspect of his work deals with the nature of change and the reinterpretation
and re-appropriation of images and/or contexts in order to present
new meanings or questions. The work is often referential and currently
utilises the signs and images of everyday life. Recent work has addressed
the hunting debate and ban of 2005, whilst another project has focussed
upon our relationship and encounters with animals, portraying what
they mean and symbolise to us now and in the past. |
| |
Shirley’s paintings deal with movement,
full of colour and vitality. Often depicting scenes from literature
or mythology. They are not meant to depress or portray a wider
social meaning, they are there to evoke pleasure and spontaneity.
Big bold lines of expression and a simple but carefully planned
use of colour give her works their strength. Her clay sculptures
bear the marks of the fires they have been subjected to. Many
have been fired several times creating almost invisible layers
of experience. Each one is unique, having its own accidental
character. |
| |
Most
of Jennifer’s sculpture is
in fine-grained Yorkstone, selected for its colour, durability
and beautiful weathering qualities. She also works in soapstone.
Pieces take the form of animals and birds that fascinate, and she
is much inspired by the human figure.
