WATER WAYS

Shippon Gallery in collaboration with BHAAM

Exhibition runs from 18th April until 31st May 2026

At a time when water pollution and its politics flows through all our minds, the Shippon Gallery, sitting surrounded by springs and waterworks, is the perfect place to show art about our responses to water.

Members of the artist group, BHAAM, reflect on their relationship with water and the water ways of the Blackdown Hills, known for its high rainfall and unique watery landscape.


The artists’ work will include pieces that examine positive human interventions such as a nearby marshland restoration project, the pervasiveness of plastic in our waterways, the sheer beauty of these waterways, and our human connection with water and trees.

Alice Crane, Bronwen Gundry, Dave King, Pauline Rook, Katherine Creasey, Gordon Field, Sally Hebeler, Nicky Saunter, Liz Gregory, Phillip Kerr, Tim Martin, Andre Wallace

Open on Thursday – Sunday 12 noon – 5pm or by prior arrangement 01460 220021
