And finally this is the book corner - where we had works by Ros Davis, David Jackson and Rob Jackson on sale.

For Kendal, Ros Davis produced ‘PLOTTED’ which gives snapshots of allotment life based on conversations the author had with three women, Michelle, Carol and Judith. “Plotted” was presented as a series of small, complete pages set in clear acrylic stands set out around the exhibition areas and as packs of individual pieces in folders in the book area.

For Kendal David Jackson wrote ‘Tales from the Plots’ which contains two short fiction pieces; ‘Gates of Eden’ a modern morality tale, and ‘A Life in the Year’ , which reflects the trials, tribulations and (very) occasional triumphs of those benighted souls who wind up serving on “the Committee”. “Tales” is a collaboration with his elder son, Rob Jackson, who did the illustrations, some of which adorn the walls of the gallery.

(with apologies to Emil Nolde)
