last week I managed to squeeze in a little visit to see

another excellent exhibition at the TAP gallery:

I couldn't make the private view due to bad weather:

but I got a real treat when Emma gave me

a personal tour of the brilliantly curated show:

*well done Amy*

my highlights are ☞

☝ this little video loop of a diver jumping into a teacup of water

by Alice Mahoney:

watching for a good few minutes, it really made me smile :

I do like humour in art:

☝ I fell in love with this piece by Cheryl Lane:

there's a sad beauty to it:

recycled and re-sited to excite me:

☝ cut paper and collage from Seth Guy:

the monochrome architectural theme and layering of coloured

paper keep your eye busy and wandering wondering:

☝ more humour in these simple line drawings by

Stuart Blackmore:

charming and evocative of human behaviour: ☟

☟the graphic montage by Joseph Kopiel has real impact:

bold dream scapes and riotous colour:

*I later discovered that Cheryl Lane has very recently passed away:

deepest condolences to all who knew her:

a rare talent that I was privileged to enjoy*
