Living Roots Exhibition

The Roseland Academy and nine partner primary schools present their “Living Roots” Art Exhibition at Philleigh Church between Thursday 28th April and Wednesday 4th May, celebrating an innovative arts project involving over 270 young artists. The exhibition features a large-scale collaboration between ten schools entitled “Standing Tall and Shouting in the Wind” which has evolved through a series of printmaking and sculpture workshops, led by visiting artist James Eddy and Expressive Arts staff from The Roseland Academy: Jo Cottam, Daisy Jones and Wendy Polley. The work has been inspired by students’ personal ‘sense of place’ and is based on an exploration of their living connections to their environment.
