The Hours of Healing
A response to the operas of Benjamin Britten
Ruth Oinn is showing a series of twenty-six prints, which have been a year in the making. Celebrating the centenary of Britten’s birth, the works have been created around Britten's operas, by revisiting several much loved works, poring over librettos and seeing productions at Aldeburgh and Glyndebourne.
Britten’s operas cover sources as diverse as Shakespeare, medieval Bible stories, American folk legends, Henry James, Thomas Mann and George Crabbe. Oinn's research varied from Japanese Noh theatre to 1930’s barber chairs via the V&A for Tudor fabric design, early American loggers and medieval stained glass.
The words, the visual images and the music have been translated into the twenty-six prints, which are not illustrations but a personal reflection of the operas and Oinn's understanding of the ideas and characters within them.
