-Scape: Constructing Nature

Abstract

There is a common expectation that as the landscape contains nature, then it is a natural thing. Yet, it is difficult to find a time when this has really been the case. It is frequently co-opted as part of the imagination of what landscape could, and ideally should, be. It can be a difficult thing to ‘read’. The three artists in –scape explore some of the diversions, delusions – as well as the delights - of the constructed landscape. In doing so, the work questions the relationship of space to experience and the ways in which meaning is constantly re-configured.
