NATURA
LAVIT GALLERY
Backwater Artists Group Members Exhibition
Opening reception Thursday 23 April 5.30-7.30pm
Artist talk Saturday, 09 May 3pm
This exhibition, curated by Brian Mac Domhnaill, explores the unusual and often strained relationship human beings have with the natural world and how, through the lens of art and other manmade creations, nature is celebrated, analysed, objectified, abstracted or assimilated to communicate a personal or shared response to the world around us.
The exhibiting artists are Debbie Godsell, Dee Hurley, Hina Khan, Julia Mitchell, Chloe Nagle, Kate O’Kelly, Deirdre O’Mahony and Conor O’Brien, all of whom have recently become members of Backwater Artists Group, through its studios, artists network and darkroom.
Natura is the Latin origin or the word nature, and its original form the word was used to describe the essential qualities of a person or thing and only later, through the lens of philosophy, was it used to describe a whole system of existence or, in a narrower form, all physical life not controlled by humankind.
