The ‘Lumen and Cleland’s Kinetic Emporium’ which runs 16 October – 22 October at the Zoom Arts Gallery, Warrior Square Station 10am – 4pm, will showcase Mobile Arts, Musical Arts and Marble Run’s by two of the Zoom collective’s member artists, Sheryl Hall and Susan Cleland. Chris Dredge writes.

Susan Cleland, a local Hastings artist, and member of Zoom Arts has always enjoyed experimenting with different art forms. Until recently one she had always been fascinated by, but never tried herself was kinetic art, and in particular mobiles. Whilst talking to fellow Zoom member, Sheryl Hall, they discovered they shared this interest, and this exhibition stemmed from that discovery.

Susan says “I hope this exhibition will appeal to both adults and children. It has been fun to do, and I hope it will be fun to see!”

Sheryl Hall studied Cultural Anthropology and Religious Studies for over 10 years with an ambition to travel the world and experience the many beautiful traditions around the globe.

With her inquisitive personality still very strong, Sheryl soon specialised in creating a range of candles that hold a secret item inside them, an item that would be specific to the target audience of the candle itself and thus began her company, Latibulum Lumen Candles.

“It’s great to be working alongside Susan Cleland”, says Sheryl. “I love kinetic arts and I am drawn to musical boxes whenever I see them. I tried to incorporate what I see as ‘Beauty’ with a particular musical tune for my creations in this exhibit”.
