Lindy and Andi
Lindy Norton
“Clifford’s Shed” drypoint print by Lindy Norton
Lindy Norton’s work has a narrative that is often unsaid. One of her preoccupations is creating a sense of unease within her work, exploring atmospheric qualities, ambiguity with mystery, hinting at human presence or absence. Her aim is to subtly change the truth of light and darkness to amplify uncertainties.
“Mark’s Room” drypoint etching by Lindy Norton
“When first I walk into a darkened room, my eyes need to adjust; a short period of visual insecurity stimulates ideas: moments that much of my work relates to.” Lindy Norton
Lindy Norton has had several one man shows and exhibited in many mixed exhibitions including The Royal Academy Summer Show. Her work is held in many private collections.
“Attic Room” hand coloured drypoint etching by Lindy Norton
Lindy studied Fine Art (BA HONS) at Hull School of Art and Design and obtained an MA in Printmaking from Chelsea School of Art.

Andi Dakin
“ Discharge” aquatint etching by Andi Dakin
Andi’s acid etchings experiment with techniques and explore ways of representing events in the infinite cosmos, occurrences from the distant past or speculative phenomena yet to happen.
Andi Dakin
“In special locations where there is no light pollution, I enjoy gazing up at the Milky Way, and letting my imagination go beyond Andromeda into the Celestial depths of our Multiverse.”
Image: Deep Space by Andi Dakin
Andi interprets scientific discoveries through acid etching processes, offering speculations about the unknown.
“My work only feels complete when it is shared with other people.”

We will be featuring Eastgate Studio members’ work throughout our studio galleries along with an exhibition of print by Lindy Norton and Andi Dakin in the Studio Gallery.
Eastgate Studio member, Lindy, has been practising printmaking since completing an MA at Chelsea School of Art in 1985 and has recently completed an MA in Children’s Book Illustration at Cambridge School of Art. Her fine art practice alludes to narrative, exploring ambiguity with mystery, evidence hinting at human presence or absence.
Andi explores ways of representing the cosmos through aquatint etching and linocut printing, sometimes combining etchings and linocut to create complementing qualities. The cosmos and its intrigue are themes Andy continues to explore in his work.
Join us for this exciting event taking place over two weekends in October.

John Balman
John has been painting still lifes, landcape and portraiture for the past eight years. He captures a sense of stillness that comes from compositional balance and careful use of complimentary colour combinations. The compositions are relatively simple and uncluttered, comprising beautiful handmade ceramic ware, flowers and fruit. The finished still life paintings possess a rich and immersive atmosphere reminiscent of the Dutch tradition.

“Still”
