Textured and smooth

 'Juxtaposition' is placing two or more contrasting items side-by-side to highlight their differences or surprising similarities creating deeper meaning.

Each of the three exhibiting artists work in very different ways and use different materials and techniques.











Thick and thin

'Touch' is invited by raising the surface


'Direction' is given with lines to follow 


'Glow' is illuminated by the use of light









Light and dark
 'Form' is explored with the deployment of fins


'Fragility' is strong


'Transparency' can be spurprisingly opaque
