Opening of The Conflict Exhibition







Twisted Pages launched a new installation piece today, in the 'Conflict' exhibition at The Waterfront Gallery in Southport. This piece titled 'Awoken From a Dream'  has been created to depict the opposing forces and clashing changes within the delicate balance of nature. 

Nature has been a constant inspiration throughout our collaboration work and again the theme of delicacy is explored within this three-dimensional illustration. The fragile and manipulative qualities of the paper has assisted us in emphasising the message within poem. That we as people have little control over the weather and will always be exposed to natures beautiful yet unpredictable character

This thought provoking exhibition covered a wide variety of themes under the title of conflict and drew in a large number of visitors. The feedback that we received from many people was brilliant and much appreciated.

Awoken From a Dream

Twisted Pages has been very busy lately, as you may be able to tell from the lack of blogging recently! We have been rolling our fingers off to finish the 'Conflict' exhibition piece for the Waterfront Gallery in Southport, Merseyside. The large scale installation piece to illustrate the poem 'Awoken From A Dream' was finished and put up in the gallery, with help from a few people, who we would like to thank. 

Our mixed media piece will be on display amongst other artists work. This exhibition will showcase sculpture, paintings, installations and photography and will open for the first viewing on Saturday the 31st of March 2012, 2pm to 5pm. At the Waterfront Gallery next to the Remada Hotel, The Promenade, Southport. All welcome, this exhibition is free. 

Here are a few images of the setting up process for the installation, there will be more to follow after the opening of the exhibition on Saturday.
