Didcot and the Power Station – An Artist’s Perspective
Matt Coburn and Jane Duff
6 January – 8 February
Two different artists’ interpretations of Didcot and the Power Station - one which focuses on the geometric shapes and colossal structures of the heavy industry and the other inspired by the light, landscape and power station within it.
Odd One Out
Kate Kessling
11 February – 15 March
Kate Kessling takes us on a subtle journey, one which repeatedly unhooks the eye from conventional and easy assumptions. Buttons liberated from their normal function become colourful and iconic entities, creating their own
aesthetic world, but look closely - nothing can be taken for granted.

WHAT’S IT ALL ABOUT?
Do you have questions about Kate’s work, well why not meet the artist herself? Don’t be shy, come down on Saturday 28 February from 1-3pm and ask Kate anything you like; about her inspiration, her experience, her practice and where she got all those buttons from!
T.A.T. King - A Retrospective
19 March – 26 April
A collection of more than 80 paintings, created over a 50 year period by the late T.A.T. (Teddy) King, which is previously unseen by the public. Exhibited to coincide with the 90th anniversary of the Royal Air Force, the oil on
board paintings depict many actual events including the Dambusters’ raid, and technical achievements in aviation like Concorde.
