INTRODUCTION :


’Yule’, is the third chapter in an ongoing series of Anima Mundi online mixed exhibitions responding to the rhythm of the seasons, also known as ‘the wheel of the year’.

In many traditions, time is considered to be cyclical rather than straight line. Perceived as a perpetual cycle of growth and retreat tied to the Sun’s annual death and rebirth. This cycle is also viewed as a micro and macrocosm of broader life cycles in an immeasurable series of rotations composing the Universe. The days that fall on the landmarks of the yearly cycle traditionally mark the beginnings and middle-points of the four seasons.


The exhibition includes artworks by (in alphabetical order) :

Massimo Angei, Simon Allen, Chris Anthem, Simon Averill, Trevor Bell, Paul Benney, Gabrielle K Brown, Christina Bothwell, Jim Carter, Kate Clark, Judith Nangala Crispin, James E Crowther, Phoebe Cummings, Laurence Edwards, Ian Everard, Luke Frost, Leah Gordon, Andy Harper, Sarah Gillespie, Miles Cleveland Goodwin, Luke Hannam, Youki Hirakawa, Sax Impey, Arthur Lanyon, Esme Lansdowne, Andrew Litten, Alastair & Fleur Mackie, Michael McGrath, Jamie Mills, Richard Nott, David Quinn, Jonathan Michael Ray, Dr Martin Shaw, Tim Shaw, Katie Sims, Jarno Vesala, David Kim Whittaker, Evelyn Williams, Faye Eleanor Woods, Joy Wolfenden Brown and Carlos Zapata.

ONLINE CATALOGUE :

I love to watch the fine mist of the night come on,
The windows and the stars illumined, one by one,
The rivers of dark smoke pour upward lazily,
And the moon rise and turn them silver. I shall see
The springs, the summers, and the autumns slowly pass;
And when old Winter puts his blank face to the glass,
I shall close all my shutters, pull the curtains tight,
And build me stately palaces by candlelight.
— Charles Baudelaire 'Les Fleurs du Mal'
