Making Waves - Breaking Ground will feature paintings, photographs and video work by 10 artists including Julie Brook, Samantha Clark, Susan Derges, Jonathan Delafield Cook, Alexander Lindsay, Katherin Linkersdorff and Santeri Tuori. Individually, each artist has been selected for their exploration of earth or water. These elements are introduced into their artistic processes in highly personal, considered ways, reflecting on the shifting forces of the natural world - its impermanence and endurance, its turbulence and serenity.
Through diverse media and expression, the artists underscore the essential role of nature in our wellbeing, reinforcing the urgency to rethink our relationship with the land and the evolving human connection to the natural world. The exhibition aims to encourage us to observe and re-evaluate the life-giving elements of earth and water, and our connection and responsibility towards them.
This year marks a new collaboration between SPACE TO BREATHE organisers Sophie and Alexander Lindsay, and the London-based Purdy Hicks Gallery. Their combined curatorial skills will bring together an exceptional group of Scottish and International artists, many of whom have never exhibited in Scotland before. Most of the works will be for sale.
