Watercolours and costumes exhibition

An intriguing combination: Sark’s wild landscapes in watercolour and a collection of richly embellished theatre costumes.

The brand-new Sark Art Gallery and Museum on the Avenue in Sark opens its second exhibition on the evening of 18th June — Watercolour Paintings by Louise Hill and Costumes from Sark Theatre Group’s production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream by Sue Daly.

Sark resident Louise Hill has produced an array of watercolour paintings fulsomely capturing favourite elements of Sark that can be found when exploring its leafy lanes and ragged coastline: caves, pools, sweeping bays, as well as sleepy lanes, cyclists and carriages.

Sue Daly, who also lives on Sark, is a talented seamstress, making beautiful costumes for Sark’s community theatre productions. The costumes she made for A Midsummer Night’s Dream in 2017 are lavishly decorated and accessorised with embroidered edging, flowery headdresses, horns, jewellery and more than you could hope for in a professional production of Shakespeare’s most magical comedy.

Betty Guille’s famous post box toppers, which were on show at the Art Gallery’s opening, will remain on display throughout the summer.

Louise’s exhibition will run until 1st July, but some paintings, the costumes, and Betty’s toppers will continue to be displayed over the summer.
