‘The Midday Sun at Midnight’ - Sandra Higgins Art, 7 - 13 May

‘The Midday Sun at Midnight’ is a colourful exhibition by David Ferry (president of the Royal Society of Painter Printmakers) which celebrates the cult film
The Wicker Man (1973).

Using collage and montage which juxtaposes everyday settngs with surreal elements, David Ferry explores the film’s unsettling ability to twist the ordinary into the extraordinary.

The body of work consists of highly colourful panels which blend bold imagery with both humour and subversion, confronting the viewer with a saccharine façade that conceals critically charged messages of dissent.

A selection of artists’ work, including David Ferry’s, can also be seen, curated by Sandra Higgins, at The Empire, Grand Parade, Bath – with viewing by appointment only (email sandra@sandrahiggins.com).

7 – 31 May | Sandra Higgins Art, Unit 11, 41 Milsom Street, BA1 1DN
