ABOUT THIS EXHIBITION

DATES & TIMES

6 March - 26 April 2021

Open Daily: 10am - 4pm

ZAFAA20 Premier Award Winner Janna van Hasselt returns to the Gallery with her special blend of colour and whimsy.

Chromasill transforms the Gallery into a buzz of activity, a buffet for the senses. Sprawling ceramic pieces of every hue intermingle on a high shelf just out of reach of the viewer’s itchy fingers. The draping, oozing and toppling forms are set against a glowing fluorescent backdrop creating a hum of colour and texture. Chaos reins: it’s scrappy and the objects don’t always interact as you might hope or expect.
