|  | The artists group, SIX-EX is made up of graduates who met at Norwich School of Art, now studying for their Masters Degrees.
Struggling to find suitable exhibition spaces in Norwich, they were thrilled to find the Great Yarmouth Galleries which offer large open spaces, ideal for big works, a safe environment for valuable sculpture and warm, dry rooms for delicate pieces.
This will be the first exhibition in the galleries since their major re-decoration.  Elizabeth Armstrong |
Elizabeth Armstrong, exhibition organiser said:
"Not only have the people been really friendly and helpful in setting up this project, but Yarmouth itself is such a visually charged place, with dramatic skylines, eccentric and historically loaded architecture and vast skies, that it's a great place for artists to be." The show includes controversial sculptures of human images by Val Reddington. These consider the confusions created in the 'post feminist' era.
Margaret Gurney-Smith's intricate prints address the current advances in genetic engineering.

There are powerful figurative paintings and drawings of the human state by Paul Power and surreal photographs of a 'Phantasy' world from Canadian artist, Mary-Colleen Rabb.
Andy Cairns offers beautiful sculptures made from found, discarded and decayed materials and Elizabeth Armstrong's delicate surfaces move between the literal and metaphorical.
