11am - 4pm

In a change to the original plans for the exhibition at Cuckoo Farm, Tony McCorry has used the residency to produce a large interconnecting graphite drawing that runs around the three main walls of the gallery.

Entitled ‘ENGLAND’ the drawings fit together to form a single landscape that incorporates numerous motifs from Tony McCorry’s paintings of the British built environment.

McCorry has used the opportunity that working in the space has provided to further explore his memories of the landscape of his childhood - tower blocks, churches, football grounds, rows of shops, and other public buildings - on a larger scale than has previously being possible.

Also on display are a number of small paintings, contrastingly colourful, that feature many of the same components present in the drawing.
