MakersXchange: Dinny Pocock
16 January 2016 until 12 March 2016
MakersXchange is an initiative where Venues and Makers Guilds from across Wales and the South West exchange the work of makers they regularly show or represent. This year LGAC has linked with the New Brewery Arts in Cirencester and we will be presenting the work of Dinny Pocock.
Dinny studied ceramics at Camberwell School of Art in London but her technique of sculpting fine layers of porcelain over wire frames has recently - and surprisingly - transferred into needle-felting. “To create a neat bird from a wilful bundle of wool seems fascinating and absurd in equal measure. Of utmost importance to me is that the essence of the subject is realised; I like to capture the moment of stillness between movements, the moment when something extraordinary might happen".
