Ingrid Pollard & others @ The Box, Plymouth

19 October 2024 - 12 January 2025

This major new exhibition, Land, Sea and Sky, brings together three artists who, although working more than 200 years apart, are connected through their close observation of nature and skilful use of materials.    Margaret Pollard, a multi-media artist and photographer, presents Three Drops of Blood, a recent body of work, which draws on two years of research that unearthed the folk histories of Devon’s botanical gardens and ferns.  Vija Celmins shows the deep focus and exceptional skill she’s sustained for more than six decades, as her intense images bring a careful focus to seemingly limitless aspects of nature from the sea and deserts, to the night sky.  Lastly, there are watercolours, paintings and prints by JMW Turner (1775-1851), from the gallery’s art collection and on loan from Tate. These depict waves, wind, clouds and skies, showing how he captured the essence of both land and sea before the invention of photography.
