V23 Gallery in The Blue presents Landscape and Memory

Art Number 23 presents a new exhibition BALTICA!, Landscape and Memory., an artist group making art for and about the Baltic region, the countries edging the Baltic Sea.

Artists mostly have a deep connection with the area, through birth, residency, family or a long-standing interest. Some countries and family connections were cut off from each other for generations. For many artists, traumatic family memories heighten their response to cultural and geophysical artefacts.

The group was set up by Jude Cowan Montague and Riitta Hakkarainen in London in December 2019. Their first exhibition ‘Memory & Landscape’ explores ideas of landscape, seascape alongside personal and group filters. Mixed media – works on metal, installations, video, sculpture, paintings.
