In this deeply personal exhibition, Anne Neil showcases a series of intricate sculptures, inspired by a period of introspection where she found solace in the shifting patterns of tree branches seen from her window. Drawing on her background in jewellery making and her reverence for handcrafted techniques, Neil’s delicate sculptures transform abstract shapes and fragmented memories into durable, tangible forms, symbolising the intersection of thought and matter.
