Translated directly from the Latin meaning ‘dream world’, ‘somnium mundi’ takes us on a journey along mountain trails, rivers and coastal paths, presenting glimmers and moments caught on film, sketch book scraps, and in handwritten text. Man is shown as a curious yet destructive species whose politics and culture are overshadowed by the mightiness of the natural landscape.
Put together by friends, family and former peers, the exhibition showcases work made when Oliver was a student at Oxford Brookes University. He gained a BA (Hons) in Fine Art in 2013.
The exhibition is a true demonstration that “to live is to leave traces, figuratively and literally” [Oliver Wortley]. Oliver passed away in May 2014.
Donations are being collected for Mind, the mental health charity.
