Be among the first to experience the culmination of six months of artistic exploration, as we unveil new works created by James Murch, Laura Segan, Gill Melling, and Rachael Allain—four artists who have immersed themselves in Torbay’s UNESCO Global Geopark, responding to its landscapes, heritage, and ecosystems through their creative practices.
About the Exhibition
Bringing together an exciting mix of painting, print, photography, textiles, and installation, this exhibition reveals hidden narratives within the English Riviera’s geological and cultural heritage. From marine biodiversity and conservation challenges to the interplay between preservation and decay at historic sites, these artists have uncovered new ways of interpreting our region’s identity.
