The Shape of Human Touch - An Exhibition by Tracey Johnston

Discover Hub at Ards Visitor Information Centre, 31 Regent Street, Newtownards, County Down, BT23 4AD
Tracey Johnston

About

This exhibition reveals how art can hold both the present and the past: the shifting rhythms of the wetland today, and the industrial traces left 150 years ago when WWT Castle Espie produced its own bricks. Through a blend of observation and creative experimentation, Tracey's work invites visitors to explore how landscapes remember and are impacted by human hands.
