The Land
7-28th May 2022
The Art Cohort, Bath
The Land is a solo exhibition that explores the textures and attractions of nature, from waterfalls to entangled wildernesses. Seeking inspiration from places that have special meaning to me, which many weavings and waterfalls are named after, and ideas that arise from this. In this exhibition I am displaying selected artworks from my time at Bath Spa University when I found my attraction to exploring textile sculptures. It shows my thinking process, from making my first weaving in lockdown and feeling restricted, following my recent artwork that sits freely.
