A SOLO exhibition of paintings by Charlie Calder Potts takes place at The Fosse Gallery, The Manor House, Stow on The Wold from February 7-27.

The Book of Kings exhibition is based on the time she spent in Afghanistan and Iraq in 2013 as an Official War Artist sponsored by the 9th/12th Royal Lancers and looks at both the ancient and contemporary relationship between the Middle East and the UK.

There will be 30 pieces in total, varying from works on paper to large installation work.

The majority of the work will be mixed media on aluminium but there will also be mixed media on copper, armoured scrap metal from Helmand Province and traditional manuscript vellum paper made in the UK.

Prices range from £650 to £12,000.

Self-taught artist Charlie Calder Potts was born in Worcester in 1985 and brought up in Gloucestershire. She now lives and works in London.

  • The complete exhibition can be viewed on-line at fossegallery.com from mid January.
  • Opening hours are Monday-Saturday, 10.30am to 5pm.
