UK art exhibition calls on eco balance

Paul said, "I'm almost directly I feel because I love natural materials, I'm carving natural materials and I'm feeling something which has taken millions of years to be made and I just feel the way the stone has been made, or marble is made you get these sort of flow of minerals which form these great colours, you get this great colour, the pallet of colour in stone."

The artworks in the exhibition are by Lynn Parotti. She works in series of paintings, having first captured images on camera. Her Inagua series focuses on the island of the same name near Haiti.

Lynn Parotti, painter, said, "I was fascinated when I went there because it was explained to me that they receive a lot more hurricanes than they used to, for example this year they had three massive hurricanes, one of which was a category five, Ike, which has actually devastated the island, mashed down the salt hills and Morton Crystal Salt is no longer functioning there, so climate change and the whole ecological and environmental state of the world, sort of, is a sort of subsidiary idea within my work, but generally I deal with the water and the whole role of it within our lives."

Her other series looks at the Thames River in London, fusing her fascination with water and the UK capital where she lives.

Parotti likes to bring opposing forces into her work and sees water as a metaphor for the energy of people, time, and places.

Both artists hope that 'The Force That Through the Green Fuse Drives The Flower" makes people think about the ecological balance there is in the world.
