Dazzle@Dovecot
We are excited that we will be returning to our lovely venue at the Dovecot Studios on Infirmary Street for our Dazzle this year. It will be our 10th year at this venue, in this, our 40th year. We are aware that all plans are subject to Government guidelines and we will be able to provide more detail as time goes on, but hopefully we will go ahead in a less limited way than we managed last year. We have our usual lineup of stunning designers plus printmaker Anya Percival and this year, a special celebration of our 40 Years of Dazzle Exhibitions.

Anya Percival
Anja Percival lives and works in Durham, a city she returned to after a five year period working in Denmark. Anja specialises in hand drawn copperplate etching.She is fascinated by the different atmospheres that light creates in our environment. Her subject matter is usually quite domestic and everyday but her attention is captured by the effect of the light transforming the spaces and changing the unremarkable to the remarkable. She has exhibited both nationally and internationally with outlets including London, New York, Denmark, Sweden and Canada.
