A quick visit to the old Tile Works at Barton-on-Humber before crossing the magnificent Humber Bridge. There is evidence of a narrow gauge tailway around the surviving Tile Works structures.

Ran a roll of 220 (32 frames) Reflx Lab Pro 100 for first time. Light leaks at beginning and end of roll (as warned). Next time will load, unload in total darkness. Possibly some scanner issues too. NOTE: very minimal adjustment post process - though much less needed as anticipated.

Mosaic glass tiles and Swarovski crystals. Metal hanging rod by Lafayette, Colorado artist Arabella Tatterhall. Approx. 1 foot long.

St Anthony's Midfielder Kieron Maxwell (10) works hard to close down the defence but the no 4 is quick enough to get rid of the ball. Royal Albert FC v St Anthony's FC, SJFA, West Region, Central District, Division 2, 8 April 2017, Tileworks Park, Stonehouse, Scotland

Tile with Openwork Arabesque (c.1200)

Some Iranian tilework has three-dimensional patterning. In this case, the decoration is an arabesque - a symmetrical composition of spiralling tendrils interlaced with stylised leaves.

Similar designs are found in stucco (a fine plaster), but the openwork would have been very fragile if made this way.

The fired, glazed ceramic is a stronger material, allowing the complex carving to survive for more than eight centuries.

Epic Iran

(May - September 2021)

Epic Iran explores 5,000 years of Iranian art, design and culture, bringing together over 300 objects from ancient, Islamic and contemporary Iran.

Iran was home to one of the great historic civilisations, yet its monumental artistic achievements remain unknown to many. Epic Iran explores this civilisation and the country's journey into the 21st century, from the earliest known writing – signalling the beginning of history in Iran – through to the 1979 Revolution and beyond. Ranging from sculpture, ceramics and carpets, to textiles, photography and film, the works in this exhibition reflect the country's vibrant historic culture, architectural splendours, the abundance of myth, poetry and tradition that have been central to Iranian identity for millennia, and the evolving, self-renewing culture evident today.
