Art exhibition
Location: Rye
We invite you to our first art launch of the year, but more specifically to meet a brilliant mind. Barry Hinves is a gifted man, some describe him as a genius, in his visual and creative perception of nature. Barry spends as much of his free time as possible by the coast, observing birds and wildlife as a form of relaxation. The remaining 23 hours a day are spent as an Orthopaedic Surgeon, replacing many of East Sussex's knees and hips, plus pinning various broken bones. Due to the intensity of his day job, this incredibly talented, scientific, and yet sympathetic man exudes sensitivity and grasps a unique understanding of the replacement of nature's very own art. This very personal release of energy is displayed in his complex artistic vision; a delicate grasp of another side of nature that man will never harness. Barry's art demonstrates his intense respect of nature's overpowering beauty and complexity, very often taken for granted or unnoticed, yet a state that constantly surrounds us. His genius lies in his ability to capture a split second of life, and interpret that timeless stolen forever. Barry Hinves is a multi faceted thinker, and something that catches the eye in his work will capture yours, forcing you to revisit your interpretation as relentlessly as the tide of the sea, yet each and every stolen view is unique. To produce such tranquility on canvas, is a demonstration of a tortured sole. Barry Hinves will be at the Cafe from 3pm onwards. Rfreshment will be provided.
