The Muir Trust and Discover Bucks Museum are delighted to announce that Belfast artist, Cara Gordon is the next artist-in residence at the museum.
~Residency : 9 April – 9 May 2024~
Meet the artist at the Museum on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays and at Aylesbury Library on Tuesdays
~‘Exploring Portraiture’ exhibition : opens 24 May 2024~
Cara’s evocative works range from portraiture to landscapes. She is a renowned and award-winning artist including winning the RUA Gold Medal at the 2021 exhibition at the Ulster Museum.
For her Residency, Cara will create a group of drawn portraits and sketches of local people within the museum and the surrounding town. These may be quick spontaneous sketches or longer studies made onto collages of discarded papers that add another dimension and texture to each portrait. She will be looking for a diverse range of sitters to illustrate the town and its communities today and hopes to engage new audiences with her work.
