Drawn to the way the world is mapped through patterns—within the contours of the land, the movements of the weather and the configurations of the stars, Liz Payne presents her first solo show in Newcastle at Straitjacket Gallery.

​

THE SURROUNDS AROUND explores the shapes and patterns inspired by botanical, topographical and astrological themes from the microscopic to the macro-cosmic. Exploring the parallel similarity and curiosity of these synchronicities that surround us serves as a reminder of the interconnectedness between all things – a common thread connecting us all.
