Cathedral Connections

A solo exhibition by Geraldine Yvonne Smith.

This exhibition is inspired by Derby Cathedral’s ‘All Souls & All Saints’ windows designed by welsh artist Ceri Richards in the 1960’s. The images created are not realistic representations but reflect more upon the spectacular emotional associations and impact the windows have on entering the cathedral alongside the light and airy atmosphere the overall interior provokes.

I also hope my artworks reveal something of Ceri Richard’s love of poetry and music – both of which he attributes as his own sources of individual inspiration.

The works are produced by means of a combination of fine art printing techniques together with some collage & stitch work and some deconstructing and restructuring of images to enhance the richness of the designs.
