Metamorphosis: Innovation in Eco-photography & Film

About

The exhibition highlights different approaches towards a shared goal of developing more sustainable practices - and heralds Pasqua’s most significant partnership with a major arts institution outside of its home market, Italy. Since 2018, Pasqua has invested approximately €5.1m in artist collaborations, arts programming and patronage - most of which, until now, has been anchored in Italy.

Exhibiting artists: 

Almudena Romero uses photography to explore ways of representing, seeing, and understanding. Romero’s works focus how art shapes perception, using naturally occurring photographic processes including photoperiodicity, photobleaching and photosynthesis.

Edd Carr’s material-led practice focuses on creating and utilising sustainable alternatives to photographic processes. He uses these methods create films that comment on the human relationship to ecological crisis and the mass extinction of life, and the resulting trauma we face as a species.

Hannah Fletcher works with organic matter such as soils, algae, mushrooms and roots which she transforms into photographic mediums and surfaces. She incorporates waste from her studio back into her work, contributing to a cyclical system of making.

Scott Hunter‘s practice fuses photography, sculpture, and installation. His work focuses on developing alternative approaches to the toxic methods of analogue photography by exploring the origins of raw materials and their symbiotic relationships within the construction of images.

Supported by Pasqua Wines, this exhibition celebrates these artists’ unconventional and innovative approaches to unlock eco-consciousness and impact. Their debut collaboration highlights Pasqua’s commitment to experimentation and pushing boundaries, as it heads into its centenary year in 2025.
