Kathryn Orton: 1 March – 1 April
For over 20 years vernacular architecture and streetscapes have been recurring themes in Kathryn Orton's drawings, prints, artists' books and installations. Her work records and responds to the rapidly changing urban landscapes in which she has lived and worked. Kathryn plans to record the unique place that is Hill End now and to explore new ideas about urban landscape by comparing nature and architecture, the past and the present, through drawings which could then evolve into print based works.

Anthony Alston: 6 February – 6 March
US based artist Anthony Alston's aspiration as an artist in residence to expand upon an interdisciplinary, site-specific body of work initially inspired by a town in Nevada. Exploring the varied relationships between Hill End and Virginia City is of interest to him; by comparing and contrasting the two seemingly disparate locations, a number of similarities seem discernable. The multi-faceted nature of each milieu will be investigated more thoroughly as thematic motifs already prevalent in his work—responsibility, intention, and serendipity—are augmented by researching chronicles and myths. Projects to be undertaken include a series of music boxes, sculptures, and performative actions.
