This is one of the best painting exhibitions you'll see this year.

The show “Uplift”, that opened on July the 5th, is a mesmerising display of mixed-media textile hangings, large-scale oil paintings, collages, drawings, and playful sculptures made from plaster, metal, and papier-mâché. The exhibition showcases the ever-evolving creativity of Caroline Hands. Caroline has been creating art her entire life. From a young age, her talent was recognised by the painter Augustus John in an art competition.

Indomitable and passionate, and always ahead of her time, Caroline directed cultural festivals in Herefordshire that featured dance, music, performances, and discussions on environmental themes.
