This first major collection of playful ceramic vessels, plates and tablets by Kitty Shepherd further blurs the line between object and painted iconography, and it does so in all the confidence of high contrast colour.
The centrepiece of the exhibition are two windows into twentieth century culture – 48 individually created tiles that each tell their own story of our collective history and their own unique process of being created. Assembled together, their effect is to overwhelm the eye and bathe it in colour, a sense closer to the experience of a stained-glass window with its panels of story-telling, suffused with the optical experience of the sublime.
