Occupying both the gallery space and the (publicly accessible) outdoor space of Tremenheere Sculpture Gardens, the Changeable Beast collective + special guests responded to the phrase Second Nature, to ask questions about our relationship to the world. From 10 August – 7 September 2024 visitors were witness to works in materials as diverse as ceramics, steel, wood and film. Performances by Katie Houston and Ornela Novello ‘Soldier on an Assignment’ were part of the opening event, a ceramics workshop was held by Sandy Layton and a day of artists talks led by Diana Wolzak concluded our finnasage.
