S. Bach’s St. Matthew Passion was completed in 1727 and has been widely recognized\, to this day\, as the greatest sacred choral work of all time. It stands as such a towering musical edifice that it casts a shadow on the entire passion oratorio genre until at least the time of Penderecki and Part in the late 20th century. \n\n\n\nCertainly\, Bach’s inventive harmony\, dense counterpoint and dramatic use of tone colour are striking throughout.

After many years exhibiting and selling\, she returned\, via a course in textiles\, to her drawing and painting roots but has more recently included ceramics in her practice. \n\n\n\nThis collection of work offers us insights into her process of enquiry through line and a variety of media\, working with the human form\, the rhythms of the coast\, the simplicity of everyday objects and natural forms. \n\n\n\nTwo approaches to making drawings and paintings will be apparent. Consciously controlled mark-making and brush strokes verging on the abstract sit alongside a much freer approach where she is not looking at the subject while the work is in progress\, yet capturing the essence of the subject. \n\n\n\nDevelopment of an idea can be seen across a series of drawings where line also directly connects to the ceramics and\, in its various forms\, line is present throughout the exhibition. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTicket prices: \n\n\n\nFree entry \n\n\n\nDates & times: \n\n\n\nTuesday 31 March to Sunday 19 April 2026 \n\n\n\nExhibition Opening \n\n\n\nTuesday 31 March from 6.00pm to 8.00pm \n\n\n\nPlease join for drinks to celebrate the opening of this exhibition \n\n\n\nFree event.

They navigate risk\, grapple with grief\, and face physical danger as they push the limits of human experience. At 6\,000 meters\, constant exposure tests their resolve\, but it’s the unspoken trust and support within their expedition team that allows them to face the unimaginable together. \n\n\n\nLeo Hoorn /45 minutes \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTicket prices: \n\n\n\nStandard – £21.00 \n\n\n\nPay More – £26.00 \n\n\n\nPay Less – £16.00 \n\n\n\nDates & times: \n\n\n\nThursday 02 April 2026 at 7.00pm \n\n\n\nRunning time: \n\n\n\n2 hours 30 minutes\, including an interval \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout The North Wall Arts Centre\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n\n\n\nThe North Wall Arts Centre is an an award-winning theatre\, gallery and performing arts centre located in Summertown\, North Oxford.
