Tidal sees a new textile and collage installation by Val Jackson, copper sculptures by Tony Evans and Sue Sharples, a wall painting using mud from the Mersey by Cliff Richards and a host of other works in photography, print, wood, felt and ceramics. Each work has taken its inspiration from the river Mersey in some way, whether from its people and stories, its landscape, the movement of the water or found objects emerging from the river bed. Artists Exhibiting: Sue Archer, Cath Ball, Jane Copeman, Tony Evans, Judith Ferns, Carys Anne Hughes, Val Jackson, Barbara Lamb, Tom Murphy, Amanda Oliphant, Cliff Richards, Cathy Rounthwaite, Sue Sharples, Jane Stokes, Angela Sidwell, Claire Weetman.
