\"\"<\/a>The North Norfolk Exhibition Project\u2019s annual Summer Exhibition of Contemporary Art, selected from the Open Call to artists with a connection to Norfolk, is this year on the theme of \u2018Site\/Sight\u2019.<\/p>\n

Site\/Sight are homophones, words in English that sound the same but have different meanings. Site, a physical place, and sight a visual sense that can be a continuum between what is present to what might be or has never been, apart from in our minds. A memory, image or thought. The theme therefore results in work that is site-specific but which also embodies the artist\u2019s response to that location.<\/p>\n

WNAA artists Esther Boehm, Helen Breach<\/em> and Paul Smith<\/em> are showing their work at Wighton25 from 3 July to 3 August.<\/p>\n

Esther Boehm<\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/a>

The Passage by Esther Boehm<\/p><\/div>\n

The Passage<\/strong><\/em>
\nA door into a church is a portal into a space of belief. What is a belief? It is a personal journey \u2013 one of our own perception of truth. Not only the here and now but something beyond that, something that is greater than ourselves.<\/p>\n

Inside a church, we celebrate this.<\/p>\n

My sculpture echoes the shape of the opening and explores my journey paving the way into what I believe and hopefully will stimulate to reflect on your own beliefs.<\/p>\n

Helen Breach<\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/a>

Watching You by Helen Breach<\/p><\/div>\n

Watching You<\/strong><\/em>
\n\u2018Watching You\u2019 is inspired by eyes looking down from the stain glass windows. The backdrop of the west wall creates an imagined face.
\nEyes are a gateway into the soul but a malevolent glare can create an evil supernatural curse.
\nEye-shaped votives were offered in chapels, appealing to heavenly powers for relief from mysterious eye diseases for which there was no known cure.
\nToday mechanical eyes are everywhere watching us but my eyes are big and bright to make you smile!<\/p>\n

Paul Smith<\/h3>\n
\"\"<\/a>

Homo Temporis by Paul Smith<\/p><\/div>\n

Homo Temporis<\/strong>
\nMixed media including plaster, clay, chicken wire sand and paint
\nThis man of time wears ancient tribal jewellery, WW1 boots and gaters, a 20th Century watch and even an implanted microprocessor. He may have been a warrior, he has always been here and has seen everything.
\nHe\u2019s blindfolded as he can no longer bear the blast of time and history.<\/p>\n

Titchwell<\/strong>
\nOil on canvas on recycled corrugated PVC with found objects
\nThis is a site specific piece inspired by many visits to Titchwell beach. It is a deconstruction of the landscape into sand, sea and sky. It includes numerous found objects to bring the essence of the place to the work.<\/p>\n

Wighton25 Site\/Sight
