Soulton Hall is thrilled to welcome the breathtaking “peat-surface-sky” art project! This captivating exhibition features three, 7-meter long banners that will immerse you in the beauty of the natural world.

The peat-surface-sky work made by Wem Youth Club with artists Kate Johnston, Sue Challis, Andrew Howe
The stunning banners are earthy and evocative, showcasing both direct works and captivating impressions of the landscape. Created using a unique combination of techniques, the artwork incorporates canvas and other fabrics adorned with natural materials gathered from Whixall Moss. Eco-printing and cyanotype printing processes add further depth and intrigue to the pieces.
