Rush to the Wilderness: London Contemporary Juried Exhibition
Gallery NAT is pleased to announce Rush to the Wilderness, running from March 15–21 at our partner space, M P Birla Millennium Art Gallery in West Kensington.
The pandemic era has shifted our perspectives and highlighted the interconnectedness of all beings, including the natural world. Inspired by our collective urge to return to the wilderness, we explore the relationship between nature, human identity, and connection in the aftermath of a global crisis in this exhibition. As we navigate a new normal, we are reminded of the vital role that nature plays in our lives, providing solace, nourishment, and a sense of belonging. Through art and reflection, this exhibition invites us to immerse ourselves in the diversity of flora and fauna, to appreciate the delicate balance of ecosystems, and to cultivate a deeper connection to the natural world as we move forward in a post-pandemic era.
