New art exhibition takes people into the wild

'The Wild: Foothills & Fairy Tales' is now on display

Two artists have come together to put their art on display in an exhibition for the first time ever.

'The Wild: Foothills and Fairy Tales' at the Erin Arts Centre features work from Rosie Watson and Iona Jerry.

The pair work across different mediums to produce their work, which will be on display until 21 December.

Rosie’s work focuses on the stories played out by the animals living within the foothills of Snaefell, drawing on the magical nature of the valleys for inspiration.

Iona’s work is a personal perspective on the story of The Wild Swans through intricate pen and ink, and is a homage to fairytales.

Howard Caine went down to Port Erin to find out more:

The gallery is open Tuesday to Friday, 10am to 4.30pm (plus during events).
