An exhibition of field walking finds from Abbey Home Farm and artwork inspired by the landscape. Four artists are showing work alongside a collection from Will Chester-Master’s museum of farm finds, art inspired by walking the fields on the farm.
Prehistoric worked flints come up in the plough soils, along with shards of Roman pottery. Way back, this was Abbey land, is crossed by Roman roads, a disused 19th century railway line and was blasted through by a dual carriageway. Will is one of the custodians of a farm which carries traces of many thousands of years of history. Artists Ruth Broadbent, Andy Freeman, Valerie Coffin Price and Caroline Morris have taken as their inspiration the layers of history on Abbey Home Farm land and created work to compliment the artefacts.
