Aberystwyth Arts Centre
Until Sat 18 Jun
Aberystwyth is welcoming the latest Ruth Thomas and Linda Alterwitz collaboration, Inside Out: From Vegas to Wales.
The newest creation from the joint series of exhibitions from these acclaimed artists focuses on a combination of printmaking and photography.
The theme of the environment and current surroundings is a source of inspiration for both Thomas and Alterwitz in their latest venture. The marriage of Alterwitz’s suburban photography of the shining and surreal city Las Vegas, with the rural and rugged surroundings of Thomas’ family home in Wales make for a rare yet beautiful collaboration, highlighting the stark contrast between two environments, and the similarities that lie within.
The collection showcases layered digital images with organic structures and materials found in their specific locations. Focus is drawn to hidden objects and scenery that the duo believe go unnoticed in rushed day-to-day living. This union of art from both sides of the Atlantic couldn’t be find a more fitting venue to be exhibited in, in a seaside town on the coast.
If you are a fan of contemporary art with a rustic feel, head to Aberystwyth for a unique collection celebrating the diverse beauty of natural and man made surroundings.
