The moon frequently makes an appearance in my work, which is a little puzzling, since I am early to bed and never have been a night owl. However, I often split my sleep in two, spending some time in the wee sma’ hoors just looking out the window. Then, I am mesmerised.

The moon has many guises, many moods and can be elusive.  It is constantly on the move and is either framed by the landscape, playing hide and seek with the clouds or basking in  a huge starry sky.  It has a powerful effect upon the earth and the beings who live here. There are many languages used in the attempt to understand and describe the nature and functions of the moon and I find interest in all of these, including astronomy, ecology and folk tales. But I find that once I allow myself to express a reverence towards the moon using my own mixture of visual and written imagery, the pulsating power of the moon shines through all that noisy discussion; it settles quietly upon my work and hangs forever in the night sky. 

 

The following gallery gives a sense of the nature of the Luna collection, but the most up-to-date images will be added nearer the time of the launch .

This book records a selection of the textile work made by Jan, over a number of years,in response to the theme of the moon.  It includes some of her own poetry and a couple of older poems that have stayed in her memory from her childhood and which still influence her today.  The book was published as a companion to an exhibition which took place at Jan's own studio in Elphin, Assynt, in November and December 2024.


Luna, the book, is  A5 in size and printed on 48 pages of luscious, heavy weight paper.  It is limited to an edition of 200 copies and was launched on the 2nd of November 2024.  It is only available through the artist’s website.

At long last the book version of the Earthworks project is complete!  And as I leaf through the pages, I feel the warm glow of a job well done, thanks to the solid support of Chelsea Frew (designer) and Ricky Frew (photographer).

This beautiful, high-quality art book contains over a hundred pages of images and words celebrating the intricate workings of the earth, as experienced through the eyes - and hands - of textile and mixed media artist Jan Kilpatrick.  Striking photography by Ricky Frew illustrates the landscape that both inspires Jan’s work and provides the materials from which the work is made.  The nature-led processes involved in the making are also recorded through photography, along with a selection of the finished textile and poetry works that emerged from this immersive project. It is a visual feast.

Earthworks, the book, is a textile-covered, hardback volume, almost A4 in size.  It is limited to an edition of 500 signed copies and was launched on the 28th May 2023.  It is only available through the artist’s website. 

 

Read this delightful review by one very satisfied reader!
