Emma Rodgers / Monday 15th June 2020 - Tuesday 30th June 2020

We are delighted to reopen with new ceramic work by Emma Rodgers In the Window and the gallery which Emma has been making during lockdown.

This figurative series tells some of the story of Helen of Troy in Greek mythology was said to have been the most beautiful mortal woman in the world and is credited with causing the Trojan War.

The image above sees her sailing through the waves in her paper porcelain boat depicted with coral, shells and waves, the face that launched a thousand ships in the words of Christopher Marlowe. Emma used her eldest daughter as the model for Helen. The piece below shows her striding onto the shore from a boat laden sea.

Emma Rodgers is an internationally successful sculptor whose work explores the dynamic relationship between form and movement.
