About Clare Hewitt: Everything in the forest is the forest

Responding to a government report suggesting that loneliness and isolation were increasing in rural areas of the UK, acclaimed photographer Clare Hewitt presents new work that celebrates trees and their remarkable ability to nurture and communicate. 
Setting up a studio within a circle of twelve oak trees, Hewitt documented the forest and its seasonal changes, exploring nature and the forest through a range of sustainable photography techniques.

About Genevieve Robertson: Under the Orange Sticks of the Sun

The exhibition will showcase work by a Canadian artist Genevieve Robertson, spanning drawing, painting, monotype printmaking and video. 

Inspired by Robertson’s personal history in the Canadian forestry industry and her interest in ecological systems, the exhibition will examine two forested sites separated by 310 million years and 4,000 miles: the ancient swamps of the Black Country and a recently fire and logging-affected slope in British Columbia, Canada. 

The exhibition will explore interconnection between natural and industrial histories, vegetal intelligence and ecological trauma.
