A RANGE of work by a Malvern textile artist is being displayed at Worcester City Art Gallery.
Dinah Prentice's exhibition is being shown in two rooms and spans 20 years of her work.
In the smaller gallery a number of Dinah's early wall hangings, including the monumental Persephone Rising, are shown.
In the main gallery her most recent series of work, inspired by a Greek maenad, can be seen, including drawings, screen prints and sewings, using silks, hessians and canvasses.
These works follow the development of her ideas from the early 1970s to the present day.
"I had been looking at Greek art in anticipation of a walking holiday when I fell upon a photograph of a small Greek sculpture," said Dinah.
"In this form she seemed to me to be fiercely courageous and co-operatively adventurous, which adds up to the alternative reading of the feminine."
