FieldWork: 25 March 2022 – 25 June 2022
​Kim Norton, Annie Woodford, Jane Cairns, Nicky Hirst, Grant Aston, Robert Cooper
FieldWork is an exhibition about the spaces that exist between the urban and the rural. Work in the field is key to a methodology. It is about exploration, observation and presentation.
Six artists challenge many of our ingrained images of urban-rural as binary opposites. They are looking at the fringes of the city where rural and urban meet and merge. Exploring spaces such as rivers, woodlands, paths or wastelands. Spaces where urban nature thrives. Finding images in gardens, allotments, churchyards, and parks. FieldWork is both a lens through which to view urban nature, and a description of artistic practice.
