ORCHESTRA OF LIGHT

Melanie Field artist first solo exhibition at Frame Workshop & Gallery.

Orchestra of Light is the work and first solo exhibition of emerging artist Melanie Field who is inspired by the invisible – hidden realms, what we don’t see, but what we sense. The feeling or energetic experiences in life – we all know how something ‘looks’ but how does it feel?

Melanie’s recent textile collaboration with Thread Design will also be showcased as part of the exhibition, where recent artworks have been translated onto stunning line and velvet. She interprets dawn, dusk, ocean and desert and those are also the themes of her paintings. Her show is at the Frame Workshop & Gallery boutique gallery space in Herne Bay –opening Thursday 27 July to 12 August 2023.

The Frame Workshop & Gallery Creative Director Zekiah Heath says, “Melanie’s works are incredibly thoughtful and complex, with some works taking months to be completed. We were drawn to Melanie’s works as they have such deep meaning and connection to nature, and a beautiful addition to our stable of artists.

Katie Collis of Thread Design concurs, “We approached Mel about a collab because we could see that her paintings would translate well onto textiles. She’s been a dream to work with.”

All works shown are new and exclusive through The Frame Workshop & Gallery nationwide.

Meet the Artist: Melanie Field at The Frame Workshop & Gallery, Saturday 5 August from 12 noon to 2pm.
