Degrees Exhibition

Exhibition of paintings, ceramics , sculpture and jewellery considering effects of climate change.

An interactive exhibition of paintings, ceramics , sculpture and jewellery considering the effects of climate change.

Join the Terra Mater Artists at the fantastic Royal Cornwall Museum, for their next exhibition, to see new work from 6 local artists and makers who are all concerned about the effects of climate change.

The show is called Degrees: referring mainly to the critical rise in temperature to 2 degrees which we need to avoid to prevent climate disaster. In the show you’ll be able to see:
•        Paintings by Karen McEndoo and Dana Finch
•        Ceramics by Laurel Keeley
•        Sculpture by Whitney Manning
•        Art jewellery by Sarah Drew and Donna Burns
Like many of us, the Terra Mater artists share a concern for the damage humans are precipitating on the planet, for the reality of climate change and the effect it will have on societies and eco-systems, on our whole way of life and very existence.

•        Collaborative installation sending messages in a bottle to tie in with the Broken Promises found bottle neck chandelier
