St Anne’s Chapel has a remarkable history: a vessel to life after death, a safe house and an educational institution. In this exhibition Edward Crumpton and Alice Vandeleur-Boorer have created a body of work in response to the building in its past, present and future context.

Please come to the opening day of the newly restored St. Anne’s Chapel where you will be able to see my finished worked from my Artist-in-Residence. Also happening this day are:
This month I wanted to explore my own drawing within the drawing and how its relates to itself. There is a sense of time and transition within this drawing as you are lead between different spaces, each getting smaller and less defined.

The sunlight was pouring in through the Eastern windows, whilst the outside of the Northern window was covered in scaffolding equipment. I took to work firstly adding 8 new sheets of paper to the left and right sides of drawing. This month I wanted to capture all the variety of light ...

When I add different sheets of paper to the drawing it has a sense adding to a puzzle: the way in which the drawing expands the sense of the room whilst still keeping in context ...
