Gardiner Museum - Harlequinade

We went to the opening of Kate Hyde's show at the Gardiner Museum. This was the culmination of almost a year's work creating Harlequins in the muse of Punch and Judy. The presentation, amongst some antiquities hundreds of years old, was vey creative and really showed her work off well.

Kate is a really talented and exacting artist. Her figures are imbued with life and you feel as though you share their joy and are being entertained.

The detailing of the figures is amazing. So inviting, that you want to reach into the glass to hold their hands. They are a delight to look at and study and you will want to take a bunch home. You should enjoy them while you can - the show closes in mid January and we will be taking "For the Show" home ....
