Laura Dutton works in glass and make sculptures inspired by our connection to nature and other organisms. For Laura, the ‘Green Edge’ is a place of duality that holds peace and unrest, beauty and ugliness. It is a place of wildness, danger and wonderful potential.
Laura currently has work on show at The World of Glass in St. Helens, and was part of the 2024 British Glass Biennale.
Sylvia Wadsley considers landscape painting a way of reflecting on her relationship with nature. To Sylvia, the ‘Green Edge’ symbolises a boundary which separates us from nature, and her recent paintings aim to re-enchant landscape as they invite the viewer to step over the green edge and enter a liminal space.
Sylvia shows regularly with The Sanctuary Gallery in Newnham, and was recently inspired by a residency in Ireland.
Emma Yorke has a cross-disciplinary, place-based practice which is increasingly concerned with notions of grief, care and repair as our ecological framework continues to unravel. She experiences the ‘Green Edge’ as a space to encounter both joy and sorrow in our interrelationship with ‘nature’, recognising that, as Francis Weller writes, ‘We must restore the healing ground of grief. We must find the courage, once again, to walk its wild edge.’
Emma has completed residencies in Svalbard, Finland and across the UK.
Come and meet the artists and share your reflections on the ‘Green Edge’ on Sunday 27th April 12-3pm.
Open daily 10-4pm. Parking and cafe on site.
