Earth Gallery

Earth Art Fellowship Initiative

Founded in 2015, Earth Art is an artist fellowship programme, offering a six-month research project with scientists from the School of Earth Sciences at the University of Bristol. Each fellowship results in an exhibition in the Earth Art Gallery in the Wills Memorial Building. Find out more on the university website here and the project website here.

As a council member, I support the initiative by writing and designing interpretation for exhibitions guides and journals as a way to reflect, share and document the artist and scientist collaboration.
