Governor Wentworth Arts Council’s next exhibition is entitled “Still Garden” and will
display floral still life works of art from GWAC member artists.
The loveliness that can come from a setting of natures mortes or dead natures has
been inspiring artists for hundreds of years. Still lifes are often associated with material
decay and the futility of worldly life. To present a showcase of beauty within apparent
death and decay pays respect to new life and life lost as we come into the warmer
months.
Showcasing the ephemeral beauty of flowers and plants in a still life setting, the show
will feature art in 2D mediums of flowers and plants as well as other naturalism based
loved ones, humans and animals alike.
“Still Garden” will take place in the lobby of Huggins Hospital from May 27th until July
15th, 2023.
