Shelter is a narrative of Pedder’s time in Felixstowe. Pedder found shelter in Felixstowe during the Covid19 pandemic. The concept of Shelter is ever more poignant considering the current plight of the Ukrainian people fleeing war and seeking refuge. This exhibition invited us to reflect on wider ideas of home, place and safety.
'I’m grateful to you Felixstowe, please accept my pictorial tribute. I admire your singularity and while my time here has been a mixed experience, I thank you for your amity, your welcoming disposition and your extraordinary skies. There is a modesty and a quiet serenity that I’ve found here in the land and seascapes and more than that, they contain a stark beauty that will remain with me’. L.P.
