NIGEL WATERS: ‘PLASTIC BEACH IN 100 YEARS’ Mixed media on canvas (80 x 100 cm) ARTIST’S STATEMENT: “I am a semi-abstract seascape painter whose work is concerned with pollution, climate change and the changing geology caused by coastal erosion of the Jurassic Coast in East Devon. This seascape depicts a sea and beach overrun with plastic pollution that could become a reality in 100 years if we don't change our habits by recycling as much as possible. We all have a responsibility to protect the planet for the sake of future generations to be able to enjoy it. My style is semi-abstract expressionist always with a vivid use of colour and the scene loosely depicts a futuristic view of Jacobs Ladder Beach and Cliffs at Sidmouth.”

BETH CARTER Darkness runs through Beth Carter’s work as she explores death, vulnerability and human frailty. The myth of the Minotaur in its many guises and reincarnations has been an obsession with Carter for over twenty years and it was only when her much-loved father died, six years ago, that she realised that her ‘life-sized minotaur sculptures were all about him’. Beth’s father, a self-taught sculptor, was a hugely complex character, a product of a difficult upbringing and a lack of formal education. He chose wide-ranging materials, from scrap metal to marble clay. He took Beth to see classical sculpture in the V & A cast galleries and he gifted her his passion for art. She is still working through her feelings of loss using her enduring sense of shock to explore father daughter relationships, capitalising on the emotional range in her work. The Minotaur works encapsulate the duality that is one of the defining characteristics of Beth’s art. Vulnerability married with power and tyranny, bestiality pitted against the value of the printed word. A small child stands fearless on a beast-headed figure. The Minotaur cradles a tiny gold book with immense care. It is a treasure. Her apparent sympathy for this creature and the tenderness in the portrayal suggests that he is misunderstood, perhaps lonely, rather than ‘LEADING THE GIANT’ (Bronze and string, edition of 15, 57 x 19 x 28 cm and 25 x 12 x 7 cm) the evil creature of mythology.
