Sculpture by Bridgette Ashton Unearth is a group show of works by Bridgette Ashton, David Edwards, Linda Gibson, Dave Jupe, Wendy Lewis, Nicole Mollett, and Jeanine Woollard. The artists were asked to respond to the archaeological dig of the castle site in 2005. To coincide with the screening of the time team excavation, the works was exhibited in the Castle Gallery, and an evening lecture about the history of the site took place.

Project History At the end of August 2005 four Artists; Linda Gibson, David Edwards, Bridgette Ashton and Wendy Lewis did a short residency in Queenborough. The project brief was to focus on the Time Team’s excavation of the Queenborough Castle site, and local peoples reactions to the event. They were on site throughout the week, and spent the time gathering images, photographing, filming, drawing, and thinking about their ideas. This research was used to feed into the exhibition which happened March, where people were able to relate their own memories of the summer dig, to both the artworks and the programme shown on TV on the 12th March 2006.The Unearth Lecture
Saturday 11th March 2006 Simon Pratt, David Hughes, Bridgette Ashton, Linda Gibson, Wendy Lewis and Bob Eatwell discussed the past present and future of the castle site.
