'Tractored by Beetles'

In this art exhibition, six artists display works inspired by Poet Laureate Simon Armitage's poem 'Fugitives' dedicated to the National Landscapes of the UK.

The artworks—ranging from sculpture, film, and painting to textiles, printmaking, and photography— encourage fresh connections between the landscape, rurality and creativity.

Featuring artworks from Alice Crane, Jon England, Liz Gregory, Fiona Hingston, Tim Martin and André Wallace.

Somerset Rural Life Museum is open Tuesday - Sunday, 10.00 am to 5.00 pm.
