This Land

This is the story of an artist's journey; returning to Cornwall, reconnecting, coming full circle.

This collection was the centrepiece of my first major solo museum exhibition at the Royal Cornwall Museum (now Cornwall Museum & Art Gallery) in Truro in Spring 2023. It represents a significant body of work created over several years of investigating Cornwall's ancient landscapes through the dual lens of visual art and earth-based material practice. The exhibition was supported by Lisarb Energy, who purchased three paintings from the show.

These are my most fully realised large-scale works - paintings that draw directly on the geological and cultural history of the county using pigments I've gathered, processed and transformed myself over months. Works from this collection are held in private collections, and the remaining available pieces from this landmark exhibition are a rare opportunity to own a piece of that cultural moment.

Botallack formed a significant part of the exhibition - a body of work that first established earth pigments and raw materials as the cornerstone of my practice.
