Pier Arts Centre Annual Open Exhibition: Katy Hackney Botanical Originals.

It was a really enjoyable evening to go to the opening night of the annual open exhibition of The Pier Arts Centre in Orkney.

I submitted two originals Creeping Thistle and Sweet Cicely from my Orkney Wildflower Series.

The exhibition showcases the arts & crafts of people who live and work in Orkney and showcases a broad cross section of painting, drawing, sculpture, photography & textiles.

The work shown reflects the wide variety of subject matter that inspires those working in Orkney and the many interpretations and forms that that expression takes from landscape, seascapes, flora and fauna to the more abstract.

If you are in Orkney or just visiting in the month of December do go and have a look at this very eclectic and unique exhibition from many talented artists, crafters and makers.
