JMW Turner's expressive watercolours, paintings and prints capture the essence of land and sea through depictions of changing waves, winds, clouds and skies.
Vija Celmin's photo-realistic paintings and drawings capture the expansiveness of natural environments, from starry skies to ocean floors.
Ingrid Pollard explores the folk histories of Devon's botanical gardens and ferns in Three Drops of Blood, which includes six unique bark boxes, six framed images, and seven prints.
Together, these three artists are connected through their fascination of nature, skilfully using materials to capture its essence, despite working more than 200 years apart.
Land Sea Sky is delivered in partnership with ARTIST ROOMS, Tate and National Galleries of Scotland.
