This special exhibition, ‘Underwing’, includes new drawings and mezzotints by Sarah Gillespie and is the artist’s second solo exhibition at Rabley Gallery. Gillespie’s interest in moths and the luminous power of the mezzotint engraving to express their beauty and vulnerability is further explored alongside unique silverpoint and charcoal works on paper.
The titles themselves read like poetry: Peach Blossom; Advancing Tiger; Wounded Tiger; Nut-tree Tussock; A Thousand Goodbyes.
Her concerns as ever are entwined with the threat to natural habitats, in particular the watery world of Slapton Ley, near her home in Devon, where the sea threatens to encroach on a unique freshwater ecosystem.
