About

Fellow artists join Jenny Pery SWAc to celebrate the launch of her new handmade book, 'Endangered' during November as we consider our relationships with animals, our interactions with them and threats that they face.

For many years Jenny has agonised about the vanishing species on our planet, due to random killing, poaching and loss of habitat, so, she decided to make a book to celebrate the rare and extraordinary animals that we still have. On her travels she has seen some of these creatures in the wild and has used her own drawings for illustration. Others have been derived from hundreds of images seen on screen. The exhibition will also feature 26 framed limited edition wood etchings from the book and some of Jenny's other works.

Jenny will be joined by fellow printmakers Alexandra Robb and Julia Finzel, and Sculptor Sara Evans.

All the creatures depicted in Alexandra Robb's prints for this exhibition are native British species. They are not necessarily directly endangered species. However, she notes that 'all our native wildlife is under some threat from the often-negligent activities of humankind. We need to protect this fragile wildlife that is on our doorstep by caring for its habitats and doing what we can to conserve it for future generations'.

A recurring theme in Julia Finzel's work are animals, the natural world and man's relationship to them. Based in Torbay, Julia makes etchings and photo-etchings and also works in oil and watercolour. Work on display will reflect these themes.

Sara Evan's sculptures for this exhibition have been made over the last two years and will include her, 'Cats in Boats', 'Seven Deadly Sins', and 'Mental Constructs' series. Each are an exploration of psychological states and human behaviour, superimposing the traits and nature of animals upon those of human beings, resulting in visually appealing pieces that prompt deeper thought and reflection.

For more information and to view work follow the link to the exhibition page.

The exhibition will run from Tuesday 29th October – Saturday 16th November. There will be an evening 'meet the artists' event on Friday 1st November 6 – 8 pm
