ABOUT FRESH AIR SCULPTURE

Set up by art collectors, Lucy and David Abel Smith, the first Fresh Air Sculpture was held in the Quenington Old Rectory gardens in 1992. Acclaim for the show’s originality and innovative mixture of traditional, modern and cutting-edge outdoor sculpture has grown year by year and Fresh Air Sculpture is now an established and much anticipated fixture in the art events calendar. Fresh Air Sculpture became a charitable trust, under Quenington Sculpture Trust, in 1997.

We are very excited to welcome Ai Hashimoto to our 2022 show in June, where she will be exhibiting ‘Kinoko’, a character from the imaginary world that informs her practice.

Ai’s work is based on a fictional narrative called ‘Pink Tsunami’, which references the devastating earthquake and tsunami that hit Japan in March 2011 and caused nearly 20,000 deaths.

Please had to the link on our bio and head to ‘news and blogs’ to read more about Ai's diverse works and process.

Posted @withregram • @visitglosuk Stroud based artist, Jack Wimperis' Scintillating Birch Forest is on display at 📍Gloucester Guildhall until July, 2022.

Jack is passionate about the importance of trees, not only for the environment but also for health and well being. He combines the forest with a beautiful light display as he knows how much light reflects our mood and is so important for mental health.

The artwork invokes emotions and invites the visitor to take time out of their busy lives, forget about the world, and take some time for themselves by taking them to a different place through this meditative and thought invoking illumination.

Entry to the exhibition is free, so go see it while you can! 😁

This is a sculpture Henry Collins @la.schmoove designed, manufactured and installed for Kallida festival, a music festival held at a Baskerville Hall in Wales.

Henry says... "The festival wanted something to transform the space inside and I decided to go big!"

It is 8m long and made of 200 2m lengths of PVC pipe - each one rotated slightly in relation to the previous one in order to create an asymmetric wave.

Henry will be showing some work with us at Fresh Air Sculpture 2022.
