Curator: Peter Wells-Thorpe
A 3003 Group Exhibition
In October 2025, Dale Ingis was invited to launch the inaugural Fine Art Exhibition programme of one of London's major new civic centres, the recently restored Walworth Town Hall in South London. This site-specific, innovative RIVER CROSSING exhibition featured 33 original paintings, collages and screenprints, several exhibited publicly for the first time. Presented as a 360° ‘Surround Art’ exhibition, on two levels. This iteration of RIVER CROSSING created an immersive Art experience for visitors which reflected the artist's own 360° visual experience of the Thameside landscape which inspired the creation of the artworks. The exhibition's immersive quality was enhanced by its being staged in a space acoustically designed to reduce external sound to a minimum.
The Walworth Town Hall RIVER CROSSING exhibition recorded the highest number of return visits to a Dale Inglis exhibition, with many visitors recounting enduring personal stories, memories and associations evoked by their experience of seeing Thameside scenes familiar to them depicted in specific artworks.
