Events at the Cornwall Museum and Art Gallery

Kurt Jackson is one of Britain’s best-known contemporary artists. He’s also a passionate environmentalist whose work actively calls attention to the beauty, complexity, and increasing fragility of the natural world. In Biodiversity, Jackson opens windows onto different locations across the UK and explores the spectrum of plant and animal life found there. From train tracks to ancient woodland, peat bogs to urban streams, ecological processes come under the scrutiny of his painterly eye.

This group exhibition of portraits is a tribute to the clients, staff, and volunteers of Cornish homelessness charity, St Petrocs. The portraits capture the innate humanity of their subjects, telling their stories and focusing attention on the people who are helped by St Petrocs in times of personal crisis and need.
