Colleen Southwell - In Safe Keeping

  • The Corner Store Gallery (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

In Safe Keeping pays homage to the natural treasures we gather, collect and study. I have long been fascinated with natural history collections, and through my horticultural background, herbarium specimens. There is a reverence to the taking and preservation of a single fragile specimen. When pulled from the crowd and treated with care, these individual beings are elevated to a position of great importance, capturing a moment in time and inviting study and appreciation through a quiet and still voice.

This body of work comprises ornithology, entomology, mycology and herbarium specimens and collections - a gathering of works in paper, as fragile as those they represent and intended to be observed closely and cherished in safe keeping.

Into the Wilder, an immersive exhibition by artist Colleen Southwell, takes a celebratory ramble on the wild side. Step by step, the wild underfoot is pondered, and its story told through a trail of delicate and whimsical paper sculpture.

Tread lightly, look closely, as you step Into the Wilder.
