Lisa Atsumi

“I’m a local artist based in Norwich, deeply inspired by my travels around the world, especially my time in Japan. My work spans various mediums and textures, reflecting the diverse experiences and cultures I’ve encountered.

I have a particular passion for  working on old, textured fabrics. This unique canvas allows me to blend the old with the new, creating art that tells a story and evokes a sense of history and place.”

Laura Bos

“I use pyrography on wood and mixed media. Inspired by the beautiful countryside, the folklore of the seasons and the stories within the landscape. These maybe found objects that hold memory or fleeting moments when wildlife has touched the verse of the day all is spun into the piece I create.”

Kevin M. Holmes

“I would describe myself as an Assemblage Artist in that I take a number of redundant or discarded objects which I then assemble, making one main piece, which often has a practical use, in the form of a lamp. My aim is always to create something that is intriguing as well as aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Each piece is often accompanied with a totally fictitious, yet hopefully amusing account as to the objects original function.”

Opening times: 10am-5pm, Thursdays to Saturdays

Location: First floor Showcase Gallery at designermakers21

Showcase Exhibition | February -April 2026

We are delighted to welcome three local artists in the Showcase for February, March & April.

Displaying their work are Kim Croysdill, Cathie Fiddling and Helen Maxfield.

Kim Croysdill

Kim Croysdill makes beautiful calm ceramics, including vases and mugs, all finished with her own glazes. Kim also enjoys raku and pit firing creating simple, desirable pieces.

Cathie Fiddling

Cathie Fiddling creates effective mosaics from broken ceramics, often incorporating special pieces of interest and text to form her work.

Helen Maxfield

Helen Maxfield creates limited edition linocuts. Her inspiration comes from sketching trips in the Suffolk countryside and along the coastline. Designs start with observational sketchbook studies and evolve through the printmaking process back in the studio. In her work Helen aims to achieve images that celebrate both the beauty of the place and the natural qualities of linocut.
