Anna Rowbury: Vestige
Vestige is an evocative installation by Brighton-based artist Anna Rowbury. Comprising ceramic objects in muted pastel tones that are suggestive of architectural fragments, utilitarian forms and abstracted domestic elements, Vestige is an atmospheric three-dimensional still life composition that induces the fragmented nature of memory and history.
Opening event: Saturday 16 November, 2-4pm
Bayside Gallery, Brighton Town Hall, corner of Carpenter & Wilson Streets, Brighton.
