The Colour of Water

24 October - 6 November 2026

Gallery - Newcastle Library

This exhibition captures the interaction of light on water in all of its moods and forms. From tranquil coastlines to raging torrents, a range of in-camera capture techniques are used to produce abstracted images that would not otherwise be apparent to the human eye.
