Truth & Lies
An exhibition of artwork by Nancy Farmer with guests, Sheena Spacey and Jo Luckstead
At Ilminster Meeting house and Arts Centre, 1st - 27th August 2011.
(closes at midday on the last day)
Nancy Farmer's art is a confection of fantasy and reality, her compositions peopled with characters drawn from her observation of the everyday and the mundane, but coloured by a love of stories and fairytales. On display, as if to underline this duality, will be her 'true' life drawings, simply sketched from the human figure, alongside the 'lies' of made-up scenes depicted in paint, pencil, etching work and embellished with a little gold leaf.

Jo Lucksted's stoneware ceramic pieces feature narrative tableaus and free standing sculptures, inspired by the classical Greek myths, depicting villainous gods, virtuous heroes and a few fantastical beasts.
