How Do Your Parsnips Grow?

Art at Yogawest

As part of our summer re-fit, we have created an exhibition space in the changing areas. Our first exhibition is by the wonderful Coo Geller, a Yogawest student and talented local artist.

Coo has just finished an M.A in Multi-Disciplinary Printmaking at the University of the West of England for which she received a distinction. She was also awarded the Rebecca Smith Fine Art Prize.

Coo’s work is about nature. She says:

“I am drawn to something, perhaps a plant, or a vegetable, and I may notice a tiny aspect of it that I find fascinating. I record this and communicate its special, un-noticed qualities.
“I want to bring the sense of wonderment to my work that I feel for everyday things – a walnut, a parsnip, an acorn….
“I give value to each little thing, and show its importance in the world.”
