Colour and Light, Alison Kinnaird MBE
9 September - 1 October 2022
Colour and Light comprised a stunning collection of work by the engraver Alison Kinnaird, one of the world's leading glass artists. We exhibited a diverse body of her work much of which has never been shown in England.
Alison's work in glass ranges from small intimate pieces to large scale architectural installations incorporating colour and light. She has artworks in many public, private and indeed royal collections, throughout Europe, America and the Far East and is also among the world's leading exponents of the Celtic Harp.
As the recipient of numerous awards and the winner of many international competitions, her creative contribution was acknowledged in 1997, with an MBE for services to art and music.
