DIGITALIS Work by five artists, Rick Copsey, Sarah Key, Harriet McDougall, David Manley & John Rimmer

2nd - 31st May 2008 Sekler National Museum, Sfantu Gheorghe, Romania

"David Manley has remained wedded to the image, and that image is one of the landscape. The work employs both painting and digital photography to explore ways of visualising memories of particular places. The use of digital technology lends an ability to meld representation and abstraction echoing the mental processes of recall - synthesising and fusing to produce a sense of place. The results are painting/drawing/photograph combines that appear as a kind of residue that are fragments rather than a collection of separate parts - the repetition of processes culminating in a congealed trace. " from catalogue text by John Rimmer.
