About Colour - An Online Exhibition by Jill Ashforth 2022
The idea for the celebrating the colours came from Maggie Nelson’s wonderful poetic book, Bluets, which describes only objects that are the colour blue. Encapsulating the joy The Botanical Garden brings to visitors was also part of the role of the video poems. The final painting in the exhibition is - ‘A rainbow of song that gladdens the soul in a dance with colour.’
