StateoftheART is delighted to present The Shipping Forecast, a gallery curated group exhibition of paintings.  Loosely inspired by the BBC Radio’s weather reports and forecasts,  the participating artists narrate their own forecast of "imminent",  "soon" and "later" events:  the artworks in this show serve as a powerful visual commentary on each artist's  connection with the natural world.

Viewed collectively, the eye journeys through these various landscapes. Recognisable features carry across from painting to painting, a cloud-filled sky here and a glimpse of dense foliage there, but each contains a world unto itself.


This exhibition presents an exciting opportunity for art lovers to experience and enjoy the work of these exceptional artists.
