Earth Songs

Curator's Note

<div>&amp;#39;Earth songs&amp;#39; envisage to showcase works of art that seek to discover the silent rhythms  of & nbsp; nature on planet earth. As an exhibition, it challenges and extends our understanding of&nbsp;contemporary & lsquo; landscape art&rsquo;. The artists in earth songs seek to discover the silent rhythms&nbsp;of nature, of life pulsating everywhere around us. The earth here is a spiritual entity,&nbsp;connecting us through ancient vibrations not seen but felt.&nbsp;In today&rsquo;s urban life artists are searching for relevant meaning in the shrinking landscape.&nbsp;This search is enhanced as science continues to reveal and explain the mysteries of the&nbsp;natural world. As the human imagination tries to visualise the world of science, the artist</div> <div>turns to landscape as a metaphor for the forces of nature that can only be imagined.&nbsp;Mysterious links between light, space and time are central to this and our understanding of&nbsp;the relationship between these elements are key to our appreciation of their beauty.</div> <div>The assembled artists may share a receptiveness to these vibrations, filling their art with&nbsp;translations of their experiences. They may not seek to mimic the scene but to express the&nbsp;intangible and emotional gravitas of life on earth through a variety of means. Cumulatively&nbsp;their &lsquo;songs&rsquo; present a poignant picture of our evolving relationship to nature and our&nbsp;shifting place within it enfolds.</div>
