About the event
Rebecca Freeman is a Cornwall based artist who makes art inspired by folklore, myth and nature. She mainly works with the traditional arts of drawing, printmaking, papercutting and painting.
For the last year Rebecca has been making drawings inspired directly from British folklore. Some of the characters in this exhibition have names that are tied to specific legends, others exist as a species or entity in the popular imagination, but their own names and deeds they keep to themselves.
Most of Rebecca's art is informed by storytelling in one form or another, and she is fascinated by the weaving of a narrative as a tool to entertain, teach, record, comfort, deceive and enchant. The imagery is deliberately ambiguous, inviting the viewer to create their own narrative depending on their own associations and experience. We all have a story to tell...
