Emotional Landscapes by Jenny Adams, Julie Delves, Eva van Gorsel and Delene White explores the philosophical idea of humanity's place within the natural world. It questions the dichotomy of being apart from nature versus being an integral part of it. Through thought-provoking artworks, the exhibition examines the consequences of perceiving ourselves as separate from nature, leading to exploitation and abuse, versus recognising our interconnectedness and the reciprocal relationship between humanity and the environment.
The overarching idea behind the exhibition is to examine how individuals experience landscapes emotionally and the subsequent impact these experiences can have on their perceptions, attitudes, and actions towards nature. By showcasing a range of artistic expressions, Emotional Landscapes aims to create a space where viewers can explore and reflect upon their own emotional responses to the natural world-be it feelings of awe, serenity, fear or detachment.
Ultimately, Emotional Landscapes seeks to facilitate a meaningful and thought-provoking dialogue about our emotional connections to the natural world, the impact of human actions on the environment, and the potential for a harmonious and sustainable coexistence.
Through audience engagement, the group create an immersive experience that goes beyond the visual aspect of the artworks, fostering dialogue, connection, and a deeper emotional and intellectual resonance with the exhibition's themes.
