Women of 'Our Time'
This autumn, visitors to Limnerslease can see a new decorative dinner service, created by nine artists at HMP Send. The women of HMP Send are serving prisoners who take part in weekly art workshops, providing women in prison with access to the therapeutic power of art.
Inspired by the Famous Women Dinner Service designed in the 1930s by Vanessa Bell and Duncan Grant, the Women of 鈥極ur Time鈥橠inner Service imagine a range of contemporary guests that Mary Watts might invite to a dinner party.
These imagined guests are shown by the artists through decorated ceramic plates. Creating dinner spaces and laying the plates on the table in Limnerslease where these guests would sit.
