A new art exhibition in Kendal is shining a light on 15 years of everyday life.

Wool Is My Bread by local artist Trevor Batchelor is on display, capturing daily scenes from the town through a series of thought-provoking images.

The exhibition, which runs until November 1, had a private view on September 18, attended by the Mayor of Kendal, Batchelor, and centre staff.

Wool Is My Bread is free to view in the Sugar Store and Foyer Galleries at Brewery Arts.

The collection features a mix of abstract, ironic and comical images that invite viewers to pause and reflect on the often-overlooked moments of everyday life.

Mr Batchelor said: "This woolliness feeds my appetite to create.

"My creations satisfy this appetite, and so, in many respects, these have become my bread."

The exhibition title is a nod to Kendal’s historical connection to the wool trade.
