“not to be missed”
With three weeks left to visit my big summer solo show, here’s Ronald Hunter’s article about it in Linlithgow’s Community Magazine.
A few excerpts:
“Much has changed in the life of artist Leo du Feu since he featured on the front page of the magazine (edition No.4) back in September 2011.
I recently met with Leo in his wonderful studio (previously a waiting room) located on the platform of the railway station in Burntisland where he spoke candidly about his passion for nature, landscape and wildlife, his full recovery from a crippling mental illness and a magical childhood spent in Linlithgow.
This ‘Homecoming’ exhibition is not just a physical return to Linlithgow for Leo, where he spent most of the first 30 years of his life, but also a celebration of the return to being himself - Leo du Feu - Lion of the Fire.”
And quotes from me:
“I’m really proud of this exhibition and I have important messages to share, about mental health, breakdown, recovery, excitement and joy. It’s my biggest ever solo show, by far. It is taking place 20 years after my Edinburgh College of Art Degree Show.
This year is also the 15 year anniversary of the Burgh Halls Gallery - a space which West Lothian Council should be so proud of and which I don’t think they make nearly enough noise about.”
