Exhibition Statement

“The Way We See It; A Colour Collective Presentation” by PotteryWorks

PotteryWorks is a studio/gallery space located in New Westminster that is supported by the Community Living Society. A collective of talented painters, potters and jewelers overcoming disability through their art.

The Colour Collective is a group of painters and photographers within the PotteryWorks studio that focus on the foundations of painting, colour theory, and the elements of design.

The Colour Collective features the works of, and studies different artists, art schools, theories and techniques. In the past, The Colour Collective has studied The Group of Seven, Marc Chagall, and Pointillists like Georges Seurat and Paul Signac.

The Colour Collective also includes Snap Photo Club, where artists go out into the community to learn the basics of photography. They later show their photos as they are, or use them as reference for their paintings.

This exhibit includes a collection of landscapes and abstracts from PotteryWorks Colour Collective studio sessions.
