Four Twisted Tales & Other Stories: Hannah Dyson and Jim Pilston

Saturday 9 November to Sunday 15 December 2024

Jim Pilston and Hannah Dyson are two local artists that have a mutual love of folklore and fairytales. We are fortunate that our local area is rich with strange stories and bizarre folktales that spark the imagination. 

In this collaborative exhibition they have explored legends that exist on our very doorstep, some real, some imagined. Through a mixture of sculpture, poetry and illustration you will meet ‘The Severn Serpent’, ‘Cold-Water Jessie of Amberley’ and ‘The Owlpen Alchelmist’, alongside witches, fairies, giants and a host of other strange critters from our mysterious landscape . 

Jim is a sculptor who uses exclusively recycled materials to create his art. Hannah is an illustrator who likes to write the occasional poem and works with collage and painting.  Their collaboration is making visitors smile and adding a touch of folkloric magic as we enter the darkest time of year … do come and see this enchanting show!

All works are for sale: click here for Hannah Dyson’s prices and here for Jim Pilston’s prices.

Jim will be running a festive mini mask making workshop for children on Sunday 8 December. For further details and to book click here.
