Sophie Sherwood, Visual Artist
Sat 2 August, St Mary's, 9.30am–4pm
On 2 August we welcome artist Sophie Sherwood to St Mary’s where she will be using the stained glass there to produce cyanotype prints (also known as blueprints). Sophie graduated with an MA in Photography from UWE, Bristol in 2019 using her grandmother’s photographic archive to make new work, and has exhibited nationally, internationally, and online.
Sophie explores the self and nature through light sensitive materials and darkroom techniques. Do come along to see her as she works to create some beautiful and unusual images!
Exevox
