Mandy Lee Jandrell: New Work

Please join us at ALMA Artspace, Newquay, for an exhibition of new paintings and textile works. Produced over a year of the artist navigating shifting terrains and materiality.

The exhibition has been curated by Melanie Stidolph, a long-time collaborator, whose insights and generous guidance have shaped the presentation of this new body of work.

The work draws on representations of landscape produced by satellite imaging (areas where earth’s surface has been impacted by human activity and climate change), and the inner landscapes of memories and dreams.

Sitting somewhere between abstraction, intuition, and remembered landscapes. The materiality of the work draws us to the body, to touch and visceral experience. To the here and now.

ALMA Artspace, Unit 5 Wesley Yard, Newquay, TR7 1LB

Open: Wednesday 28 October to Saturday 31 October 2026, Daily 12pm-4pm

Celebration Event: Friday 30 October 6-8pm with singing by From Scratch Choir and music by Smokey & The Mirror and guests.
