Welcome to Turquoise Dreams: My Serenity Opening Night!
We recognise it will be a different time worldwide so by Opening Night we mean that audiences can enjoy the Exhibition in advance of it being open to the public on Saturday onwards.
Opening Night is: Friday, 16th October, GMT (UK Time) at 7:30PM.
This should be late afternoon for the US/Canada as we have a few participants from there and Europe also exhibiting amongst at least 89% UK based ND female artists.
At 7:30PM the Doors will open to the exhibition:
Catalogues are available to buy in the Exhibition Shop.
Artists will receive their Catalogues on Friday evening.
Here at Magical Women, many of us are supported by allies and In solidarity artists.
Our In Solidarity poet, Richard Downes offered us a poem until the doors open to take us to the Art of our Magical Women, of Neurodivergent female artists:
In Richard’s words:
I'm not sure if it was all a dream. It’s late after all but I thought i saw the title of the next exhibition somewhere so i proffer…
My Serenity
My serenity
Paper and Pen
My own mother
A tall mountain
The marks I make
Upon her ream
Ink is flowing
Into still tarns
Deep still waters
Holding silence
White sunlit snow
Folds of A4
Like sheep grazing
Ruminating
On lines that stand
Like battered fences
Where earth meets cloud
To dampen soul
The pleasure comes
When work is done
I perceive a Magic Women title and I offer up my song with gladness. The second verse; a magic potion taken from the apothecary of pharmacist Townes Van Zandt. Our Mother the Mountain, an album full of old death that helps me travel on a different plane.
