| Nature employs an exciting array of visual stimuli, embodied in the vibrant colours and sculptural forms revealed within the ephemeral display of exotic flora. The minutiae of detail overlooked in the course of casual observation transformed by the photographic lens. “I seek to redefine spatial relationships and explore pre-conceptions of these alluring subjects, revelling in my fascination with the delicate play of light upon their exquisite shapes and fluid contours.” |

Scars Upon My Heart: Jacky Dillon |
| Exhibition: 27th March - 23rd April 2009 |
| A solo exhibition of monochrome photographs exploring the complex relationships between memory and the geographical imagination. |
| “I was inspired by the poetry and verse written by women during the First World War to create a tentative bridge spanning the divide that developed between the two sexes. The terrible conditions suffered by the men in battle were to be mirrored in the turmoil experienced by the women at home, forced to endure the endless heartbreak of loss and sorrow”. |
| Scars Upon My Heart expressed the emotional anguish of women left behind. The desire to bear the scars their loved ones suffer and the torment of perpetual reminders revealed within their familiar surroundings. |
| At the Nineveh Gallery, Nineveh, 11 The Pallant, Havant, PO9 1BE |
