Bringing the ancient art of Falconry to the modern age, with a far-reaching and breath taking display, that is guaranteed to thrill in the beautiful setting of Highgate Cemetery Courtyard.
Filled with audience participation and interaction, the display also shows the natural attributes and abilities of the birds and exhibits how they live, fly and hunt in the wild.
Including Peregrine Falcons, estimated at reaching speeds of up to 242mph, British Barn Owls, spectacularly silent in flight, spell binding as they fly. The Kestrel – We have all seen them hovering at the side of motorways, but have you ever seen them this close?
Gates open at 7pm for the Static display. The Flying display starts promptly at 7.30pm and will last around 45mins followed by Questions and Answers and an opportunity to take photos.
Linda and John Jenkins: THRESHOLDS. 8-24 June 2018
Nature forms the basis of both Linda’s and John’s work, but their approach in style and medium is very different, resulting in a varied and evocative show.
Linda’s work explores her fascination with surfaces, textures and colours and the responses, both emotional and psychological, that these elements can provoke. She uses collage, fabrics and stitch as well as lino and mono-printing, collagraph, drawing and painting, manipulating her materials to experiment and reveal in an intuitive way. In this process she is also exploring the connections between our exterior and interior worlds.
Inspiration is drawn from the land and seascapes of Australia, rock formations in Norway, beaches in Cornwall, and woods and lakes closer to home. Linda is aiming to evoke a memory of a place and time experienced, as well as opening the doors to new – as yet unexplored – vistas.
John’s photographic work is inspired by landscape and especially trees which he feels are imbued with both spiritual and visual qualities. Working intuitively when editing his photographs he is searching for structures, patterns and textures that reimagine the components of the landscape into new visual experiences.
He is also fascinated by the concept of symmetry which is found in so many forms of art and nature. He endeavours to create work that has a meditative quality and allows the viewer the opportunity to discover hidden worlds. His artworks are constructed as photo collages as their composition is a result of a process of experimentation both with scale and the choice of paper to enhance the image.
All work in the exhibition is for sale.
