Magic show brings together a diverse group of women illustrators from the West Midlands and further afield including Leeds, Norwich, London and Scotland. Exhibitors are Jane Anderson, Mina Braun, Helen Entwisle, Ruth Green, Kate Hindley, Mary Kilvert, Sarah Lippett, Beth Morrison, Sarah Ray, Karoline Rerrie and Daisy Whitehouse, a mix of recent graduates, emerging and experienced illustrators. They have each interpreted the theme of magic in their own unique way and created new work especially for Solihull Gallery. Rather than focusing on drawing two dimensional illustrations, the group has used this opportunity to exploit other abilities and hidden skills they don’t always have the chance to utilise. They have stitched, paper cut, painted, printed and conjured up an array of unusual artwork ranging from large scale installations to intricately detailed hand sewn characters and small screen printed artists’ books.Throughout the Magic Show there will be opportunities to meet and even work with the different illustrators involved in the exhibition.
