Bucks Art Weeks

David Rodgers MSDC brings together his existing work & new pieces, mostly of wooden lidded containers, his new work containing smaller items that could be used as either decorative pieces, or to store jewellery etc.

Sheila de Rosa MSDC states about her work:

'I have been exploring ways to celebrate innate female cyclical repetitions, especially the parts often considered ‘off limits’.

My aim is to empower women to love and appreciate their bodies; to highlight the equivalence between female bodies, our planet and the cosmos; and to use symbolic, appropriate and conceptual processes to further these ideas.

Unknowable Bodies consists of two parts; fifteen print medallions called Labiae and six large plaques called Ecologae. These prints are all mainly Eco Prints that combine innovative methods to pierce the centre and curl them back, revealing, in Labiae, subtle abstract monoprint markings and photogravure etchings in Ecologae. This is a departure from usual print presentation and employs my own unique methods without placing them behind glass,

I hope these works blow out of the water what a print should be.

Unknowable Bodies - Labiae consists of fifteen circular pieces 19cms in diameter and hung in three rows of five each row exactly beneath the above row.

Unknowable Bodies - Ecologae has six large 34cms diameter pieces – three pieces on the top row, two pieces in the middle row, the bottom has just one piece, thus forming an inverted V shape.'
