dark dark forest - Exhibition opening - 6 pm Thursday 11 July We hope you will join us for this amazing exhibition of soft sclupture and personification.
Janet Cluston says of her exhibition of soft sculpture. " In the beginning was The Dark Dark forest. Mother Nature ruled supreme. But this is a story of Hubris and Narcissism. When the Patriarchy reimagined the Deities in their own image, asserting that Man was no longer part of Nature but that Nature was there to serve his desires, women ,as embodiment of dumb Nature ,were also bent to their will.... I rescue the burnt forest brought to the shore on flood waters and call up the animal spirits of the forest in loud protest. Enough of Patriarchy – it is time to honour Mother Earth, her rivers and her oceans, and her Dark dark forests. It is time to honour the Great aunts with some subversive stitchery."
