Tidelines, a Collaborative Exhibition

by Artist In Wood, Eleanor Lakelin & Silversmith Adele Brereton

The exhibition explores a mutual interest in the fragments of eroded objects and material they find on the Thames foreshore near their studios. Both artists explore using fragments of the past to create new narratives - reinterpreting found textures and forms in wood and silver.

AS LOW TIDE REVEALS THE LAYERS OF TIME, REMNANTS OF MATERIAL CONNECT US TO THE TREASURED OBJECTS, INDUSTRIES, AND LIVES OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE SHARED THIS LOCATION FOR CENTURIES.

Eleanor Lakelin is a British artist, creating vessels and sculptural objects in wood. Eleanor creates distinctive forms in response to the passage of time etched into the fibres of the material.

Adele Brereton works in Silver and Gold. Adele intuitively translates forms by hammering flat sheets of metal. By using ancient techniques, she creates tactile and understated pieces.
