Two new art installations are set to open at Dunham Massey. Opening during the spring season, they will explore wellness, our relationship with nature and how this connects to the estate and its communities, but in very different ways.
ORIGIN will take visitors on an immersive experience using sonic soundscapes and visual artistry and A Field Hospital for Eco-Anxiety offers a refugewithin nature for visitors to pause and reflect.
Both will encourage visitors to slow down, take time out and reconnect with themselves and the natural world.
Saturday 3 May marks the official opening to the public, with ORIGIN located in a specially built wellness spacewithin the house and A Field Hospital for Eco-Anxietytaking over the Orangery in the gardens of Dunham Massey.
Katie Clayton, Programming and Experiences Manager at Dunham Massey, says, “It’s incredibly exciting to have these two extraordinary immersive experiences taking place at Dunham Massey. Eachpowerfully explores the interaction of art and nature, with messages to discover and messages to unlock within yourself. They do so with very contemporary approaches, but which are rooted in the 400 years of history that have unfolded in the house and gardens. For visitors, as well as fascination, they will provide welcome moments of escape and connection that we hope will stay with them after their visit.”
