Birds, Bugs and Botanicals of the Bluecoat: A Blue Room Exhibition
Artists from Blue Room, the Bluecoat’s inclusive arts project present a new collection of works exploring the biodiversity of our urban garden.
Green spaces such as the Bluecoat garden have long been a source of inspiration for artists. The exhibition celebrates the often overlooked flora and fauna of urban spaces and the important role nature plays in creating a nurturing space for city dwellers.
The works in the exhibition depict commonly observed birds and insects found in the Bluecoat garden. In collaboration with ceramic artist Olivia Rowan from local studio Clay Workshop, the artists created 3D sculptures using recycled clay. Observational drawings of flora and fauna have been collaged into screen printed collaborative works created in the Bluecoat Print Studio.
Featuring works by Alfred Beesley, Amy Dykes, Susan King, Tracey Ledley, Andrew Mellor, Kayleigh Murray, William Richardson, John Rigby, Ottman Said, Jean Smith, John Steele, Jane Walsh, and Veronica Watson.
