Have you got the Light Touch

05 October 2011

Running from Friday 30 September - Friday 28 October

This exhibition is the result of public workshops held at the Brewhouse Theatre during Somerset Art Weeks.

The Light Touch abacus, which is located in the foyer, was created as part of these workshops, which experimented with dark and light, responding to shapes and shadows and making colours that sing.

Somerset based artist, Richard Tomlinson worked with the children to explore shadow and shape and make these truly vibrant sun pictures.

Richard said "Children and adults have experimented with the theme of light, using papers, fabrics and a bucket full of buttons from the Scrap Store. We are all delighted with the work produced and grateful to The Brewhouse for creating the opportunity for this child friendly exhibition."

Light Touch is part of 'Light Waves', a collaborative project exploring creativity and light led by the Somerset RFO Arts Team.
