EILEEN RICHARDSON
My drawing 'Embedded' (below) has been selected for the South Downs Open at the Petersfield Museum and Art Gallery, Petersfield, Hampshire (https://www.petersfieldmuseum.co.uk/current-and-upcoming-exhibitions). The exhibition is being held between 22 October 2024 and 1 February 2025.
This drawing explores time, place and belonging. Inspired by the primeval badger setts tucked into the earth throughout the Downs, it expresses the quiet sanctuary of home. It depicts a section of the South Downs Way near East Meon, an ancient pathway I follow to find my own identity. Although I was born in Australia, my ancestry is derived from the south of England, and I now make this land my home.
