Through the Whispering Pines | Alanna Eakin

27th September - 27th October

Contemporary London based artist Alanna Eakin leads us through painterly portals into distant, imagined lands. With her signature use of saturated, electric colour and abstracted, expressive mark-making we travel to dreamscapes which are otherworldly and yet connected to our human experience - engaging our curiosity and allowing us to weave a personal narrative. A celebration of the surreal, the nostalgic, and the instinct to escape.
