Four exciting exhibitions Take Over the SAW gallery space; each artist inviting you to look at, experience and discuss their work. Part of SAW’s commitment to support talented emerging artists.

Chroma | Emma Bromley | Exhibition: 2 – 9 February | Discussion: 1 February (Zoom 7-8pm) 
Colour is embedded in our everyday life, yet often goes unnoticed. Chroma resituates colour at the forefront of our senses. By combining original paintings with LED lighting, the gallery is enveloped in a kaleidoscope of colours which alters the viewer’s perspective and invites them to explore their relationship with colour.

Microforms | Lee Drew | Exhibition: 16 – 23 February | Discussion: 15 February (Zoom 7-8pm) 
Microforms explores small recurring details found in nature through vast monochrome drawings, inspired by the artist’s collection of organic found objects. The drawings play with perceived scale to examine micro/macro relationships in the natural world.

Moving Boxes | Lucy Bennett & Merlin Cross | Exhibition: 2 – 9 March | Discussion: 1 March (provisionally in person, 6:30-8pm)
Moving Boxes uses painting to question the impact of purpose built student accommodation on the lives of the young people who live in them. How does our relationship with this temporary accommodation affect us? Do these places feel like homes? Are they meant to?

Three Paths | Tracey Davison, Tracy Reynolds & Linda Willcox | Exhibition: 16 – 23 March | Discussion: 15 March (provisionally in person, 6:30-8pm)
Tracey Davison and Linda Willcox show their individual but entwined journeys through semi-abstract paintings which illustrate the power of nature and art to cheer, comfort and connect. Tracy Reynolds explores the idea of art as gift giving, through a series of postcard images and small pop up books, which ask the question how do we make a difference?
