Simon Pope: Here’s to Thee
23 Jan 2021 to 9 Jan 2022
Making History Gallery
Here's to Thee is a new art collaboration that explores the rich ecology and culture of cider making. This fascinating and thought-provoking artwork is led by internationally-acclaimed artist Simon Pope, in partnership with Arts and Culture at the University of Exeter and RAMM.
Pope is collaborating with a team of creative practitioners, RAMM's curators and University of Exeter academics to explore the more-than-human ecology and cultures around cider-making. A programme of public events and displays during 2021, hosted by the University, RAMM and project partners, provides opportunities to discover more about the rich and fascinating world of microbiomes and better understand how we are all connected with our environment.
On display in a case in the Making History Gallery is the Wassail Bowl created by Dartmoor-based potter Abigail North, specially made for the Halstow Wassail in January 2020 from clay in the fields around the farm. Shown alongside are documentary photographs by critically-acclaimed Exeter-based photographer Robert Darch.
