Natalie Day - Natural World Artist

Recent Exhibition: 'This Land' Solo Show at Royal Cornwall Museum

April to June 2023

This is the story of an artists journey; returning to Cornwall, reconnecting, coming full circle.

Rich in mining and ritualistic history, these rural landscapes have been calling me to investigate and contemplate what is above and below ground, the human impact on nature, our place in this world. With this body of work I continue to explore the use of natural pigments and paints made from the earth - these are paintings about the land, made of the land.

Workshops and events alongside this exhibition bring the community together to discuss and create, echoing the ancient gatherings on Cornwall’s sacred landscapes.

Reimagining the Landscape

"Natalie’s work explores the nature of home. Having grown-up in Cornwall, it investigates her personal relationship with the county and the history of the land. Her process begins in the earth, routing in geology to fathom and forage natural pigments such as red clay and yellow ochre. Out of this communion with soil she builds reimaginings of the landscape, constructing and understanding her place within it. "

Cornish bred Natalie draws her inspiration from the natural world around her and offers us rich landscapes to escape into. The perfect finishing touch to any interior, but especially for that of a nature lovers."
