‘When Worlds Collide’ art exhibition coming to Burnham Overy Boathouse

A new exhibition will showcase the work of three artists who are working together for the first time.

‘When Worlds Collide’ is being held at Burnham Overy Boathouse between September 24 and 29 from 11am-5pm.

It brings together three distinct visions of the Norfolk coastline, bearing witness to the creative talents of three artists using different mediums and spanning nearly a century of work.

Heading the procession, the indomitable 95-year-old Pamela Noyes has been painting the Norfolk landscape in oils on canvas for as long as she can remember.

91-year-old Colin Kent started painting as a ten-year-old boy, and now uses predominantly watercolour and collage to create semi-abstract haunting landscape vistas. He has a background in architecture.

As a former president of the Royal Institute of Watercolour Painters, he declares every painting “an experiment”.

Finally, David Koppel is now turning his lens on the vast skies and dramatic land of East Anglia after falling in love with the land following the illustration of Miles Hedley’s seminal work on the Norfolk Broads, ‘Still Waters’, back in 1999.

Koppel is the link that forges the partnership, having discovered Colin in a London gallery in 2002 and meeting Pam at one of his own shows held at the Morston Workshop back in 2008.
