"A ruralist": Someone who is from the city, who moves to the country.
The works in this exhibition focus on escapism, the joy associated with being among nature, and the detrimental effects (aesthetic and social) of urbanisation. The works are diverse with a common evocation of a romantic response to nature and rural life, as well as a reinvention of late 1800s Arcadian themes in painting.
