Coming in from the East

 It's a long time since I made it into Brecon, but there's a new exhibition coming up that looks very tempting.  The Found Gallery on the Bulwark are putting on the exhibition, called Coming in from the East, and one of the featured artists is Richard Greatrex, from Hay, with a collection of photographs he took in Japan, inspired by traditional Japanese art.  He also has a book of the photographs available, price £20.

There are also oil paintings by Sue Vaughan Williams, pottery from Pamela Thorby, wood carving by Chris Pye, textiles by Jennie Jackson, and geishas in mosaic by Maureen Richardson - another well-known local artist.  She no longer makes paper, which was her career for many years, as she is now in her nineties, so she has turned her creativity to making mosaic pictures instead.

There is also jewellery from Chrissie Nash and wooden Christmas ornaments by Faye Lavery Griffiths.

The exhibition opens on 18th October.
