Headington Artweeks - Jewellery, Photography, Sculpture, Textiles, Paper and Printmaking

Alongside the wonderful offerings of ceramics and painting this year we have some really interesting work from jewellers, photographers, textile artists, and a sculptor, printmaker and paper artist too.

PHOTOGRAPHERS

Dan Beinart - venue 300

Dan will be exhibiting for the first time at Art Weeks this year, and will be showing a selection of his stunningly dramatic landscape photos from his travels. 




Mazz shares selected precious photos from New Headington with delightful visions snapped during the reflective moments of travel around the globe.


JEWELLERS


As a private Goldsmith, Lisa Marie designs unique jewellery ranges and takes personal commissions all year round.She is also skillful at capturing the essence of memorable moments by remodelling, and transforming sentimental pieces.



Leonie's aim is to create original, contemporary jewellery which demonstrates a high level of craftsmanship. The work is delicate and distinctive.  Much of her work in one-off. All of it is made with meticulous care and attention to detail.


SCULPTORS 


Jane Wafer is a fine artist working mainly in sculpture. She has recently begun experimenting with clay, combining ceramics with wire to make sculptural forms, as well as hand building and throwing vessels. 


TEXTILE ARTISTS


Ewa enjoys creating with different materials - textiles, semi-precious stones, paper.


Jan Purrett will also be at venue 311 showing patchwork and quilting inspired by hedgerows and the colours of the countryside. 

PAPER


Kate will be exhibiting intricate layered papercuts, all cut by hand.


PRINTMAKING


Over the past fifteen years Jackie has been making studies of the different areas of Oxford. The city and the colleges as well as areas like Botley and Barton. From these studies she has been producing Etching and Aquatints. And she thought it would be worth bringing some of them together for Art weeks. The Exhibition is on the main corridor level 3 just past the reception area.
