Nicholas Romeril
Nicholas Romeril studied painting at Camberwell College of Art in the late 1980’s and in 1991 to take a Master’s degree in printmaking. On returning to Jersey, Romeril set up a studio and began painting, sculpting and printmaking. He started lecturing at Highlands School of Art in 1996 until 2009.
Since then he has held numerous solo exhibitions and many group shows in London, Switzerland, France, USA and Jersey. His artwork is immediately recognisable and his paintings, drawings, prints and sculptures are found in collections and public spaces across Jersey and worldwide.
Carol Ann Sutherland, a graduate of the Glasgow School of Art, is an artist whose paintings, drawings and prints form part of an evolving narrative that has run throughout her career. The characters and places in her artworks serve as an allegory for the artist’s own life, engaging with one another in an enigmatic and captivating manner. Recurring figures – horses, angels, castles, rivers, boats and chessboards – inhabit an imagined landscape that feels both autobiographical and universal. Her work deeply reflects family life and personal experience, yet it always remains open and welcoming. Rather than being closed off, it creates space for viewers to discover their own reflections.
