Art for heart's sake at city gallery!

Volunteer Jane Gerwitz with one of the Valentine exhibits
Artists have been creating artwork based on the word love to mark Valentine’s Day.
Their work forms part of a display at the Hand Made in Bradford gallery.
Tanya Gaffney-Greetham, who co-ordinated the project for arts organisation Fabric, which runs the gallery, said: “The response from the artists has been brilliant.
“They all worked really hard in a short space of time and made some amazing things. I was like a kid in a candy shop when I saw the work and couldn’t wait to put it in the window.”
Love can be seen in a variety of media and in many languages including Chinese, French, Greek, Arabic, Lithuanian, Italian, Latvian, Urdu and Spanish.
The display also features a crocheted box of chocolates made by volunteer Loretta Khan based on a design by Michelle Wilcox.
The aim of the window is to promote the artists and all items are hand made locally and will be on display until February 18.
