20-26 August 2014

 

  • “In their second collective exhibition Creative Photographers in Cheltenham (CPiC) present their work, “The Museum of Light”, at the Gardens Gallery, Cheltenham from Wednesday 20th to Tuesday 26th August 2014.
  • Most of the group met on a Creative Photography Short Course at the University of Gloucestershire in 2009. Sharing a mutual interest in the creative side of photography, they have met monthly as “CPiC” since then. Their images, produced from using established and new techniques, are intended to challenge the viewer’s perception as to what is a good photograph.
  • This year’s exhibition title originates from a collaborative project between CPiC and Poetry Factory, a Cheltenham-based group of poets. The outcome, a limited edition anthology of poems and images of the same name, was launched at the Cheltenham Poetry Festival in April 2014.
  •  The experience of responding photographically to the written word provided a new challenge for the photographers, giving them fresh creative avenues to pursue during and since the collaboration. The images on display  demonstrate the different direction each photographer has taken in responding to the title, “The Museum of Light”.
  • The photographers exhibiting are Helen Dewbery ARPS, Sandra Prowse LRPS, Rowan Hull, Sarah Farooqi, Matthew Siller, Rob Colley, Linda Kirkhope, Felicity Travis and Isobel Laing.
  • Original photographs, limited edition prints, postcards and greetings cards will be available to purchase at the exhibition. You will also be able to meet the photographers.
