St Ives Arts Club - Exhibition

Next week sees the opening of a new exhibition at St Ives Arts Club.

See My Words Make Love.
An exhibition of images and words by artist and poet Crispin Williams.

Word meets image in an explosive creative collision. Crispin Williams lifts his poetry off the page and spins his words into striking visual crystallisations of colour and form.

These unusual pieces are expressed through a range of media including sculpture and digital art.

Crispin explains, ‘I’m in a process of integration, pushing words into my art and allowing my visual work to play with the images in my poems. But it’s more than just illustration and ekphrasis, words can be images and images can be words, It’s not easy to totally merge words and images without destroying one or the other but in a some of the pieces I’m reaching towards elements of fusion’.

Runs from Thursday 27th August - Thursday 3rd September 2009.
Open every day 10.00am - 4.00pm.
Free admission.
