24th July - 19th September: Paintings, Drawings, Etchings, Ceramics, Sculpture, Textile by selected artists

Andrew Cheetham was born in Heywood, Lancashire and studied at Manchester Polytechnic, Liverpool John Moores University and Central St. Martins College of Art. He lives and works in Scarborough, where he has a studio in one of the baiting sheds on the harbour. He has been painting the sea and documenting Scarborough’s declining fishing Industry since 2000. In 2009 he was Artist-in-Residence in Rosedale on the North York Moors. The notion of decay is central to his work, from the documentary depiction of our declining Industrial Heritage, to the momentary collapse of a wave. Through close observation, he aims to capture changes in atmosphere and light, drawing on both a personal and social relationship with his subject matter – objective yet intimate.
