In My View: 1st - 29th July

Our second summer exhibition of 2023 sees a welcome return of Imogen Bone and Steven Buckler - two wonderful landscape artists who have delighted us with their striking work in exhibitions over the past couple of years.

In My View they come together each with a new collection of landscapes and seascapes of our beautiful corner of Cornwall - the Rame Peninsula landscapes. Steven grew up in South East Cornwall so is no stranger to the beaches, estuaries and woodlands of our corner of the county; Imogen has only known the peninsula for a few years - being introduced to it by Jill Hudson as they undertook a sketching tour for their 2022 exhibition Walking Distance - but for this exhibition Steven and Imogen introduce each other to their favourite places.

Imogen and Steven's work will be complemented by a collection of Nerikomi porcelain vessels by Judy McKenzie who is making a welcome return to the Byre Gallery.
