Mel Tong - Tidal Patterns
16 June - 29 June 2022
Melanie Tong paints and abstracts the patterns left by the tide in pools and on the sand. She is also interested in depicting the vertical shapes that cut through the layered horizontal elements of the coastline, such as breakwaters, tidal pool edges and groynes. She uses layers and layers of thick and very thin acrylic paint, to explore and exaggerate the colours of the East Kent Coast.
