Exhibitions  >   These Shores

Featuring images of select coastal spots from the Orkney Isles and the Moray Coast, this collection brings together places that each have a specific resonance for Ingrid. Some are vistas found on walks from her studio; others are cherished places from childhood that continue to draw her in on each return visit.

Having previously spent two years painting and repainting the same wreck from Montrose beach she chose to progress by examining shorelines which hold a special intrigue for her. The result: an investigation into the aspects of these shores which captivate her. What combination of form, colour, movement, scale and space makes them precious to her, and can it be emulated on canvas? The resulting group of drawings and oil paintings, a combination of in situ analytical studies and abstracted, stylised studio works, was brought together in this solo show.
