OUT OF THE WOODS. WORDS TO NAVIGATE BY

OUT OF THE WOODS: WORDS TO NAVIGATE BY.

3rd December 2017 - 15th February 2018 Queen's Wood, Highgate

Throughout Queen’s Wood, you will find signposts with Poetry. Instructions. Quotations. History. Observations. Artist Grace Adam is taking art out of the gallery and into the woods. From December’s Oak Moon to February’s Storm Moon, come and explore and see Queen’s Wood in a very different way.

Fingerposts will help visitors to navigate the woods, to see and experience the space differently. Would it be interesting to know you are walking through an ancient plague pit, or you are sharing this wood with more than one hundred species of spiders? What if there were also signs that stole lines of poetry, or told you to let yourself get lost? What if you knew that all those Holly trees were can frighten evil fairies and protect you from lightning? Grace’s work makes a quiet intervention asking visitors to stroll, to notice, to laugh and to go off at a tangent.
