MY MORNING RITUAL
Nicola Chatham takes the physical and emotional experience of her natural
environments and personal relationships, translating it into a beautiful visual and literary record of day-to-day selfexamination.
SERENITY IS...
For centuries poets and philosophers have spoken of the universal desire for serenity and of those fleeting moments when life slows down long enough for our blessings to come into focus. Gathered in this exhibition are some of Margi Parry’s moments of serenity. Each work recalls a past memory, captures the now or anticipates the future, while savouring the insight of each serene moment.
