Gemma Lessinger at The NLH
Join the NLH as we welcome Gemma Lessinger and her incredible work this May…
Padstow and Rock have long been a favourite area for Gemma to study, the estuary and Doom bar being particularly fascinating for her to study. Being able to showcase this body of work right on the waters edge in Padstow, looking out to the estuary is a dream come true. All the works on display will all be focusing on the surrounding area, with Gemma live painting there most days.
A portion of every sale made during the exhibition will be donated to the important work the Hatchery team are doing to preserve the marine life and therefore ocean that Gemma is so passionate about.
Exhibition: Small Claws Big Impact
Behind the Scenes look at the National Lobster Hatchery Story, captured by marine conservation photographer Lewis Jefferies over the last 5 years. Lewis is an award winning photographer, filmmaker and cameraman based in Falmouth, Cornwall. He works with conservation organisations to document their work, show the beauty and fragility of the natural world and help spread awareness of the challenges it faces.
Lewis’ photo story on the hatchery has featured in many print publications and was awarded in an international competition. This exhibition is the chance to view the photography project in person for the very first time.
