Mount Kelly’s Art exhibition at the Tavistock Wharf Gallery in December serves to celebrate the collaboration between our pupils and established artists living and working in West Devon.
Jennie Hale an artist / potter lives and works in the beautiful wooded Lyd valley. It is here where she creates her nature diaries, recording forest creatures, bugs and ripples in the river. From these she generates unique earthenware, and Raku fired sculptures. Jennie’s animals and birds come to life, expertly decorated with oxides and glazes. These beautiful creations have inspired and motivated our pupils and adults alike who attend a Saturday class at the college desiring to create their own ceramic masterpieces. Animals, human heads and artifacts, skillfully coiled and modeled with expert guidance.
Our A ‘Level pupils also get the opportunity to work alongside highly acclaimed Mary Gillet at her Tamar Print Workshop. Set on the edge of Dartmoor, her surroundings are captured in her scored, furrowed, scraped and burnished etchings and landscapes which become contemplations on how our surroundings can reflect our histories, our moods and our thoughts. Pupils learn historical techniques and processes, helping them to turn their observational drawings into individually unique finely crafted prints.
The artwork of Jennie Hale and Mary Gillet will be presented alongside that of our pupils, showcasing artists of the present and potentially, of the future.
