"Colour is life for a world without colours appears to us dead"
â Johannes Itten
Feeling Colours explores the connection between colour and human emotion using upcycled furniture, art and textiles. How does colour affect our sense of calm, excitement and well-being? Can we create inviting and rejuvenating space by understanding and promoting colour? The exhibition will feature several âroom segmentsâ showcasing the canvas art and textile design of Ellen McKenna. It is hoped the exhibition will serve as an inspiration for visitors to create and explore colour havens within their own communities, businesses, and homes.
Exhibition Running dates: Friday 19th March to Friday 16th April 2021
EXCLUDING: WEEKENDS AND EASTER LONG WEEKEND
