OVERVIEW

Liminal Gallery is thrilled to announce the second exhibition in The Cupboard exhibition space. 'Night Walks' is a solo exhibition by Margate-based artist Thelma Speirs, which reveals a collection of evocative drawings and paintings, meticulously documented within the pages of a vintage French accounts book. 

Through Speirs' artistic lens, the urban and natural landscapes of London and Margate converge, giving way to a tapestry of ethereal nightscapes, enchanted woodlands, abandoned sports pitches, mythical creatures, and the enchanting winter skies, intertwining the realms of reality and imagination.

Using a diverse array of mediums, such as acrylic paint, pencil drawing, felt-tip pens, and nail varnish, Speirs captures the elusive moments experienced during nocturnal excursions. Each brushstroke, every pencil mark, and vibrant hue on the paper breathes life into snapshots of a dreamlike narrative.

Visitors will have the unique opportunity to delve into the artist's intimate sketchbook-turned-diary. To further enhance the immersive experience, archival gloves will be provided, allowing viewers to delicately leaf through the pages for an intimate exploration.
