Hestercombe Gallery presents work from artists Sarah Bennett, Megan Calver and Philippa Lawrence. Developed through material investigation and research at Hestercombe Gardens, this new exhibition presents the results of this work through sculpture, objects, drawing, text and photography.
About
For the past three years artists Sarah Bennett, Megan Calver and Philippa Lawrence have been directly engaged with Hestercombe developing new site-based artworks that have drawn from material investigation and research. Materiality: Provisional States presents the results of these interrelated enquiries through sculpture, objects, drawing, text and photography.
Collectively interested in issues related to labour and the management of landscape and nature, this exhibition aims to examine and critique human and non-human centred activity found in Hestercombe’s past and present. The exhibition stems from archival research as well as ‘Disclosures and Dialogues’, a series of dialogue sessions with artists, curators, historians, academics and garden practitioners.
