Carole Bury

Mixed media Textiles Drawings

'Paper structures emerging out of landscape - complemented with drawn responses to their origin.'

Carole Bury’s drawings and paper textiles are physically combined in these appliquéd, pleated and folded works.
Graphite and ink drawings on lightweight papers are tightly compacted, the compression revealing new vistas of pilgrimages and landscapes reflecting a love and passion with the natural world. The physical act of making these ‘field landscapes’ and ‘walking treaties’ is slow and thoughtful.
Carole works fluidly across and between textiles and drawing; monochrome drawings emerging as a dialogue with the landscape, a dialogue in which she deepens her relationship with the land and seeks to find it’s essence; referring regularly to repeated imagery.

Carole lives and works from a small village high in the Cotswold Hills in the UK. She studied Art at Cheltenham College of Art, and Fine Art Embroidery at Manchester Polytechnic. She is a member of the Cheltenham Group of Artists.

Her drawings and paper textiles have been part of ING Discerning Eye, RWA Annual Open and Derwent Drawing exhibitions. She has enjoyed Residencies at Nature in Art in Gloucester, Brisons Veor in Cornwall, Painswick Rococo Garden and recently in Hastings.
Carole works closely with the Pure Arts Group and benefits from being an ArtCan Member.
