Award-winning artist captures dancers in bronze sculpture for Great Northumberland

Artist, Joseph Hillier has collaborated with dancers, Lizzie J. Klotz and Maria Vincentelli to develop a unique piece of work marrying traditional techniques with modern technology

Cheeseburn welcomes art-lovers for the final time this summer, and visitors are in for a real treat with a specially-commissioned exhibition from award-winning artist, Joseph Hillier, featuring ‘pause/play’ – a collaboration between Hillier and dancers, Lizzie J. Klotz and Maria Vincentelli.

The new exhibition is made possible by Great Northumberland – a summer of art, culture, heritage and innovation across Northumberland, which is part of the Great Exhibition of the North ‘Inspired By’ programme and designed specifically to get visitors to the region to explore the country’s most northerly county.

Previous visitors to Cheeseburn, located in Stamfordham, will have noticed Hillier’s sculptures in the formal garden and now, in a continuation of Cheeseburn’s long-standing relationship with the North East-based artist, visitors will have the opportunity to see a major solo exhibition of brand-new works, including bronze-cast sculptures in the Stables Gallery, a light and sculpture installation in the Hayloft space, and further works in the Stables Project Space.
