5th April - 14th June 2025
Lucy May Schofield, winner of the 2020 Flourish Award, presents new work from her expansive practice.
This solo exhibition by artist Lucy May Schofield brings together a selection of work on paper and textile presented alongside new sculptural pieces . The show centres around her relationship to light and time, showcasing the performative prints she creates each solstice and equinox within the vast Northumberland landscape. Over the past decade she has explored a ritualistic connection to the seasons, the sun and moon through expanded printmaking.
This exhibition invites visitors to contemplate the passage of a year. As meditations on the colour blue, each work is a tonal reflection of the light travelling to us from the sun, over the four corners of the year. Living under a classified dark sky, the stars and planets have become her constant companions and where she looks for perspective and motivation. Untethered is a love letter to time, a journey into her understanding of the human experience of living with, of and as nature.
