SEASONS is a group exhibition curated by arts organisation, SMALL WORKS.

Four works from artist Jennifer Steele Evans's 'And We Became the Colours of the Land Sea and Sky' series

It is a privilege to know a place through the passage of time, and this exhibition looks to nature for a sense of connection and grounding. The poems and artworks were selected for display via a free open call. The call asked for work that responded to the seasons through a cyclical journey of; awakened optimism (Spring), joyful warmth (Summer), gathering community (Autumn) and quiet resiliency (Winter).

SMALL WORKS

SMALL WORKS CIC is run by artists Monica Perez Vega and Sylwia Narbutt. It launched as an online gallery in 2020 to sell small artworks by emerging and established UK-based artists.  It was originally designed to help fill gaps left by Covid at a time when opportunities for artists and access to galleries had become limited. The digital platform has since evolved into a physical collaborative space for artists, curators and educators.

SMALL WORKS has gone from a description of an object to a statement of proactivity. Small works. Full stop. Do what you can, work with what you’ve got. The online shop is a platform to champion the work of hustling women, carers, educators, and others we’ve met along the way, who inspire us through the continued dedication to their practice in spite of all that tries to tug them away. With an emphasis in painting, we are interested in nature-led, curiosity-driven, and materially-playful work.
