We are pleased to present Dot Dot Dot, an exhibition by well-known Bradford artist Jane Fielder. Jane has been a great friend and supporter of Trapezium and we are delighted to be showing work from throughout her long art career, celebrating her past success but also looking forward to what comes next.

Jane describes her art life as a wonderful journey, which started at a young age and explains her reasons for holding the exhibition at this particular time:

“Growing up after the war my parents had few possessions. Everything was treasured and valued, and we were taught from a young age ‘Waste not want not’. Those values have stayed with me, and I have always struggled to let things go. But as time goes on, the need to ‘let go’ is becoming more urgent.”

This need for a ‘clearing’ hit her starkly, when she shared her precious paintings with her niece Helen, who has turned her much-loved old things into a magical home. Paintings that meant a lot to her blossomed and started a new life and it filled her with joy all over again.

Jane is using the opportunity to exhibit at Trapezium to continue this quest of sharing her varied artwork. The show ranges from paintings of childhood memories to photographs of pre-development Lister Mill.  She also gives us something new, a series of ‘dot’ paintings, a theme that has helped her deal with stressful events in the past (all displayed in old frames of course) which emerged while filming ‘The Yorkshire Auction House’ earlier in the year.

She is bursting with ideas on how the exhibition will look, including “a wall or two, possibly even a ceiling, crammed with unframed life drawings”; a nod to the life drawing class she runs at Keighley Creative every week. She feels “the ‘multifaceted’ Trapezium Gallery is the perfect spot” to display this wonderful eclectic collection.
