“With its dramatic landscape \u2013 desolate mudflats and saltmarshes, vast open skies, container ports, power stations and seaside resorts \u2013 the Estuary has long been a rich source of inspiration for artists and writers. Through film, photography, painting and printmaking, the contemporary artists featured in this exhibition offer new insight into this often overlooked, yet utterly compelling, environment and the people that live and work there<\/em>.”<\/p>\n
