An exhibition at Stockport Art Gallery & War Memorial in Greater Manchester commemorating the centenary of World War One is set to feature a combination of shipwreck photographs and paintings inspired by them.
Beneath the Waves is a collaboration between diver Paul Webster, who will be exhibiting his black-and-white underwater photography, and local artist Henry Quick, who has produced mixed-media work inspired by Webster’s work.
The subjects are wrecks of Allied and German warships and merchant vessels that sank during, or participated in, WW1 around the British Isles, illustrating their state of preservation after a century submerged.
The exhibition runs from 8 April to 14 May at the gallery in Wellington Road South, Stockport.
