Leonard McDermid – Show and Tell

Leonard McDermid is an artist, poet, printer and award-winning publisher. He has lived in the Scottish Borders for over fifty years and he has exhibited widely, with work held in many private collections and some public collections.

His exhibition at UWE, Bristol’s Bower Ashton library throughout October celebrates work made at the Stichill Marigold Press over the past twenty-five years: a captivating assortment of pamphlets, poems, cards, pieces and objects that ‘provoke smiles or quiet pondering’. The work presents itself quite minimally, in limited colour palettes, formed in sizes that are human which ask to be held. Read more about his exhibition here

Leonard McDermid will be talking in person about his work, poetry, printing and creative practice (and we hope, also reading some of his poems) at UWE, Bristol, Bower Ashton Library on Thursday 31st October 2019 between 12-1pm. This is a free (unmissable) event and all are invited to attend.
