CHASING SEASONS EXHIBITION: THE EFFECTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON BIRDS

Leicester-based artist Lucy Stevens’ latest solo art exhibition, ‘Chasing Seasons’ explores the effects of climate change on bird species through a body of new mixed-media artwork.

The project will see her working in collaboration with scientists and experts in the natural world from the British Trust of Ornithology and Leicestershire & Rutland Wildlife Trust. The creative process will include discussions with experts and access to bird-related research, case studies, and nature reserves to interpret the information in an accessible and creative way.

Visitors to the exhibition can expect to see a variety of new artworks, including vivid portraits of spring migrating birds, photographs of bird skins from Leicester Museum’s collections, and enlightening interpretations of scientific research.

“I am looking forward to collaborating with experts in the natural world who can provide insight into the decline of birds due to climate change and what this will mean for future species. This is a chance to delve into bird-related research and produce a creative response to demonstrate the importance of nature and our connection to it.” Said Lucy.

The exhibition will take place between Friday 7 – Thursday 20 May at StudionAme, 2 Brougham Street, Leicester LE1 2BA.
The exhibition will also be available to view online at www.lucystevens.co.uk/works/chasingseasons.
