“you can fall for what isn’t there already
[…]Best believe in the world more than yourself.
Diptych, Kevin Young
Christopher Stephen on A Landscape longed for at CEAM for Burnaway (041524).
“… an expanded collection of artists who address identity, belonging, and historical reverence through the intricate visual metaphors associated with the garden.
[…]A Landscape Longed For: The Garden as Disturbance expressly reminds one that shared human histories of time and place are imbedded in the dirt. The timeless adage “When in doubt, turn to nature”, serves as a poignant reminder of the deep-rooted connections between the garden and the human experience. Plants, like people, hold histories often obscured by time or memory, yet their significance is felt empathetically. The exhibition offers an enriching garden that nourishes both the physical and spiritual needs of those who take the time to walk, look, and contemplate, among the plants.”
