Broadworks exhibition: Dawn Beckles: On Display
April 19 - May 5
Hive Curates is excited to present On Display, an exhibition featuring the paintings of Dawn Beckles and telling a story of ordinary objects and the memories we connect with them.
In a world where we are constantly bombarded with images of grandeur and extravagance, On Display seeks to redirect our attention to the beauty inherent in the ordinary. Each artwork in this collection serves as a testament to the artistic potential hidden within the most commonplace objects. From discarded household items to forgotten trinkets, every piece in this exhibition tells a story of significance, inviting viewers to explore the aesthetic and emotional resonance of the seemingly mundane.
Private View: 18th April, 5 – 9pm
Exhibition running: 19th April – 5th May
Opening times: 1-6pm (other times at request)
A mixed media artist specialising in combining painting, collage and screen printing, Dawn Beckles frequently parallels found images of man-made beauty with those of the natural world, especially exotic flora inspired by her native Barbados. It is in Dawn’s paintings that one will find high fashion, bespoke interiors juxtaposed with orchids and birds of paradise painted from her private collection.
