Beauty & the Beach: Landlocked in the Heart of England (2011)

Opening Times: Tues - Fri 6-8pm, Sat - Sun 2-7.30pm


Beauty & the Beach is an exhibition of photographs and found objects from the beach. This  interactive exhibition is set in Meriden, traditionally thought of as the centre of England and one of the points in the country furthest from the sea.  Following on from my interest in finding beauty in disregarded objects I am showing the  objects I have collected from visits to the sea-side over the last few years. 

I am appealing to the public to bring in found objects from their trips to the beach (or photos of). These will be added to the exhibition to create a growing installation.
