Connect with nature through online art series

By Caroline King - April 16, 2020Posted in : Art, Classes & Workshops, FEATURED-STORIES

As part of their Culture + Climate programme 2020, Devon’s Thelma Hubert Gallery has teamed up with East Devon AONB to share Nature Shorts, an online series showcasing art practices which inspire, build creativity and deepen our connection with nature.

The Nature Shorts series will explore how we can connect with nature during isolation, sharing different artistic approaches to land and space.

The artists involved with the series include Emma Molony, Gordon Field, Gabrielle Hoad and Megan Calver, George Barron, Paul Blakemore, Jo Lathwood, Mike Perry and Fourthland. The artists will work across a range of materials and processes including land art, photography, printmaking and performance.

The first art practice in the spotlight is Printing with Paint with artist designer Emma Molony. Molony uses paints from LOLA’s art kit, inspired by THG’s latest Richard Long exhibition, to help us connect with nature in creative ways.

Further Nature Shorts this month will include experiments with nature outdoors and at home, finding new narratives and new readings with artists Megan Calver and Gabrielle Hoad; and tree exercises to help find well-being and cope with future changes, with artist and tree dowser Gordon Field.

When: Weekly series, on Wednesdays until 10th June 2020
Where: Watch online via Facebook or Twitter
£: Free
