The Black Country Woodturners were invited earlier this year to Exhibit their work at the “Come As You Really Are, The Hobby Cave Exhibition by Hetain Patel” at the former Grants department in Croydon.

“Come As You Really Are” by Hetain Patel features thousands of objects created, modified or collected by hobbyists across the UK, shown alongside a new artist film. Each hobby represents a decision to commit valuable time to live life on one’s own terms in a society dominated by consumerism.

Here are pictures of the 76 pieces of club member’s work on display at the exhibition. The display also includes a few pieces from other turners from around the country.

They are:- Kevin and Cameron McAlister, Sandra Nesbit, John R Kellam, Hunter Chaus & Allan Sharp.

The exhibition runs until October 2024

These are individual pictures of the club’s display pieces.
