Virginia Ray: Moors and Reservoirs of Nidderdale, North Yorkshire
At the heart of Virginia Ray's artistic practice is a belief in the importance of landscape in reflecting the evolution of nature and an expression of cultural identity and self. Virginia's work ranges from vast landscapes to intimate studies using an extensive range of materials on canvas including mixed media, natural materials from the land, photographs and the written word.
Born and raised in Nidderdale, Yorkshire, where her family have lived and worked for generations, Virginia has developed a strong understanding of the history of landscape and its' particular rural and industrial stories.
During and since lockdown, Virginia has found re-assurance and emotional support revisiting the colours and moods of the Yorkshire landscape that she has always had a connection to.
