A NEW exhibition aims to help people ease back into normal life after lockdowns.
Taking place at South Hill Park until Sunday, May 22, A Sense of Space has been curated by The Reading Guild of Artists’ (RGA), and is on display in its Atrium and Balcony galleries.
The aim is to give viewers a chance to reflect on, remember and restore their own sense of space.
The newly elected President of the RGA, BBC Radio 3 presenter Fiona Talkington, said she felt the spaces at South Hill Park was an inspiration to many artists exhibiting.
“It is thrilling to be able to share in some of that inspiration, to spend time with vast canvases and small prints, with silhouettes and ceramics and to reflect on the skills and talents of so many members of the RGA,” she said.
The RGA said that it hopes the exhibition encourages the viewer to look, see and connect with some of the feelings the artists have attempted to portray in their work.
Both the RGA and SHP hope that the wide variety of artworks on display, the range of subject matter depicting a sense of space, and the joy of experiencing ‘art in the flesh’ will be a source of great pleasure for all who come to South Hill Park Arts Centre.
A free Meet the Artists event will be held on Sunday, May 15, from 11am. Places for this should be booked in advance.
