Joan Scott, Caroline Scott
& Isobel Ross
Based in Dorset,
Caz, Isobel and Joan have been exhibiting together for several years
since they completed HNC/D in

they all show very individual responses to the environment. Their use of
different and varied media will make this an unusual and exciting
exhibition.

Group 94
Group 94 was established in 1994 by a group of ex-students from
Southampton College of Art.
They are a body of professional artists who meet on a regular basis for
mutual support and exchange of ideas. Their semi-abstract work is
diverse in context and media and leads to challenging and original two
and three dimensional works of art.
