Suzy Bennett - Artisans of Dartmoor

Sculptors and soap-makers, potters and painters, honey-farmers, hide-tanners and wood-turners – Dartmoor has one of the most talented artisan communities in the UK. In this exhibition, travel photographer Suzy Bennett goes behind the workshop walls to produce an intimate collection of photographs of some of the Moor’s finest artists, makers and producers.

Among Suzy’s subjects are Devon Guild Members Jane Deane, a textile designer who breeds her own silk worms and Luke Shepherd, a sculptor who teaches London surgeons the art behind reconstructive surgery.
Opening event: 4 March 2-4pm. Artist' Talk:25 March 2pm.
