Tactile Forest brings the theme of botanical life into the gallery landscape. Mossy greens, golden browns, sea + sky blues mimic our natural world through acrylic and oil paints, ceramic + fibre sculpture, contemporary embroidery + unique mixed media photographic works. Each of the seven artists imbue their experience of nature through diverse mediums, reflecting the diversity of the tactile + intangible within our forests + the connection art has with nature.
Artists: Bev Ellis, Julie Johnston, Jane Kenyon, ByNature Designs, Zed Payne, Sandrine Pelissier + Heather Talbot.
