Endeavour Exhibition

Endeavour
 - a creative collaboration
25th March - 17th April 2017
Pier Arts Centre

This exhibition was a project that brought together two of the PAC`s on going programme`s, the Piergroup and their work with BA (Hons) students at Orkney College and is the result of several months of creative exchange with the artist Neville Gabie.
BA (Hons) Level 3 student Beccy May helped curate the exhibition as part of her Professional Practise module and the resulting show presents a selection of works that highlight the interactions of the participants.


Neville Gabie
`Endeavour`
This piece was a continuous line drawing created on a train journey by Neville and what began as a straight line ended being more like a wave showing the motion of the train.

Beccy May
`Many Hands make Light Work`
(L-Stone mason /R-Farmer)

`Stone work`

Piergroup

`Experiments in sand`
(short video sketch)
`Collaboration Black & White`
`Polaroid Project`
`Sketchbook Stories`

Displayed on a shelf were the sketchbooks that `travelled` - to and fro between the art students in Orkney and Neville Gabie.


Erlend Firth
This mixed media piece was one of twelve, displayed in a straight line. Each 
one was dominated by the bright orange dot which immediately caught the viewers eye.

Kathrine Diaper
`Scarth`

The word `endeavour` was the vehicle to which all the art works on display was generated from and demonstrates a wealth of artist endeavour.

This is just a small sample of what can be seen at the PAC 
and with so much more on offer, its a 
worth while visit!!
