Sleep, that essential activity that everybody needs. Storiel has a fascinating collection of sleep related objects not normally seen together. This exhibition will be a cosy, colourful celebration of patchwork quilts, traditional bed covers, night clothes, a cradle, hot water bottles and even a model of a traditional box bed, made in the 19th century. Many of the fabrics are over a hundred years old, made from locally produced wool and linen.
“This small exhibition of still life paintings is my response to some of the ceramic pieces in the Storiel and Bangor University collection. These every-day household objects made one hundred or two hundred years ago speak of life – the people who created the lively patterns and designs of these jugs, mugs, plates, bowls, and the folk who owned and used them.
