Dorothy Cross: Bloodlines Series (Jackknife dive), 2025 | Dorothy Cross: Bloodlines | Wednesday 21 January  – Saturday 14 February 2026 | Kerlin Gallery | Image: Dorothy Cross: Bloodlines Series (Jackknife dive), 2025 |  framed black-and-white photo showing someone in bathing suit and white cap diving into, probalby, the sea; we see what seems to be a wall nearer the camera, and possibly one in the distance; the figure is seen side-on, at the right side of the canvas; the figure is bent, doing the dive; the whole image is tinged red by what is like a translucent huge brushstroke of blood

Dorothy Cross’s Bloodlines series comprises unique works that layer archival photographs with hand-poured, red-veined glass. Taken by the artist’s father in the 1940s, these images reveal an inherited fascination with the sea-a personal history caught within a geological frame.
