Sometimes, I wonder if I would know a beautiful thing if I saw it.

'Sometimes, I wonder if I would know a beautiful thing if I saw it.' (Megan Fernandes, Love Poem)


We prefaced our new exhibition with a line from a poem by US poet Megan Fernandes. In conversations with artists, we have noticed a certain shift in thinking: Away from a strong preoccupation with life in metropolitan regions towards a deeper engagement with our relationships to nature and landscape. Not in the sense of escapism, but in the sense of recalibrating our role in this great whole.
