Myth & Memory within the Sussex Countryside

Nathaniel Fowles, an artist and teacher living in Angmering, West Sussex, has coordinated an exhibition of art by a group of talented artists at the Victoria Institute in Arundel entitled ‘Tales Etched in the Landscape’: Myth & Memory within the Sussex Countryside.

It is a free exhibition celebrating art and creativity shaped by the land and its stories and includes paintings, photography and a variety of handmade prints.

Since moving to Sussex from London twelve years ago he became enthralled by the local scenery and how it was possible to see Iron Age hill forts, Roman roads and the remains of medieval villages all in the same landscape. These evocative landscapes and their accompanying stories have reignited a lifelong fascination in mythical creatures and characters which are so intrinsically interwoven with the Sussex countryside.
