The artwork of Caroline Hands

6 July - 21 September

Artist Caroline Hands is Woolwich Works’ first Summer Artist in Residence. A mixed media artist for over 50 years, her exhibition will feature a range of Caroline's paintings, textiles and playful sculptures throughout the historic Fireworks Factory building at Woolwich Works.

Her large-scale canvases work with vibrant colour and dynamic gesture to create joyful, exuberant paintings that celebrate life in all its diversity. Her subjects range from the abundance of nature, found in gardens and dream-like landscapes, to the resilience of the human spirit in touchingly direct portraits and expressive depictions of dancers and performers.

For more information on Caroline and her artwork visit her website.
You can also book a free ticket here to see Caroline interviewed by art historian Jo Cottrell.

This is a free exhibition and no advance booking is necessary. The exhibition is open to the public during our normal opening hours.

All of the artwork at this exhibition is available to purchase, including sculptures, fabrics, paintings, drawings and mixed media pieces.

You can find the artworks throughout the Fireworks Factory building, in Coopers Foyer, Lilian Barker Gallery, our Visitors' Book Café and in our Workers' Yard. You might also find paintings in some of our hallways.

Each artwork is labelled for easy identification and pricing, with a QR code that will lead you to that artwork's unique webpage.
