Exhibition

More Information (The Voice is not responsible for external websites)

Karen Howse has been a visiting artist at Dunsland. This exhibition is a gathering of her drawings, monoprints and experiments made over the 5 years she has been re-visiting this NT Parkland. Karen’s art practice is attentive to cycles & patterns that connect; recognising the urgency of ecological collapse, longing for hope; seeing nature as talisman, balm and messenger. Dunsland in North Devon has an intriguing history, an absent house, ancient 700 year old Sweet Chestnut trees with heavy limbs spiralling towards the sky and rare lichens that thrive in its undisturbed microclimate. This exhibition is mostly a story of the artist’s correspondence with these trees and an open ended experiment in how drawing in a place can bring us closer. Drawing is used as tool for listening, inviting other ways of being, knowing & responding.
