26 July - 7 September 2008

Although Peter Wells studied in Bath in the 1970s and has been based here ever since, he spends six months of the year travelling in India. He travels not as a tourist but as an ordinary person, living and mixing with local people.

 

This exhibition consists of 27 images based on 9 collages assembled over  two years in South India.

The work was last shown in The British Council Chennai to great acclaim.
 
"The artist in Wells sees each work as a statement of joyous reflection, where drawing and colour are inextricably linked,  ... becoming multifaceted 
extensions of his commitment to translate the beauty of the eternal Indian paradise."
