This small exhibition is in the downstairs gallery at Cristea Roberts. I’ve only included a few pieces here as works behind glass are fiendish to photograph. You can see more on the gallery website.
Most people will recognise David Nash‘s living sculpture, Ash Dome planted in 1977, from the BBC4 trailer. It’s a beautiful concept whose location has never been revealed but the natural force of ash dieback is now sadly destroying it.
This set of four prints above is of the dome over four seasons in 2021, a record of the natural cycle while it is still alive.
Richard Long, another artist working with land and nature, shows screenprints from his mud drawings of the tidal river Avon. Below are a few close-ups.
I found the bright red and green disconcerting so would be interested to learn how they’ve been received.
Time and Tide combines low and high tides in a single unit.
As I said, to see the pieces without reflections please visit the Cristea Roberts website.
