Sublimis: Nature’s Magic
Elina Yumasheva, Elle Collins, Eugenie Vronskaya, Golnaz Jebelli, Jean Huang & Tom Norris
In celebration of the Spring, Sublimis exhibition brings together six contemporary artists whose work channels the sublime essence of nature. Inspired by its spiritual and transcendent forces, they seek to capture its ineffable beauty and power. Their creative processes reflect a deep connection to the earth, exploring the interplay between humans, memory, and the natural world.
Using a range of mediums—from painting and textile art to sculpture—the artists evoke nature’s sublimity and the transformative energy of the changing seasons. The magic of spring’s renewal, with its vibrant colours, serves as a source of spiritual awakening, inviting reflection on the impermanence of life and the enduring rhythms of the earth.
Elina Yumasheva celebrates ecological consciousness and the diversity of living and non-living forms through the use of pure oils, pigments, and natural and other non-toxic materials. Drawing from mythology, science, and symbolism, her work investigates themes of impermanence and transformation through the lens of materiality. Elina’s work explores the relationship between the artist, the environment, materials, and processes, where her artworks embody a dialogue between intention and unpredictability.
Elle Collins creates sculptural textiles, often drawing inspiration from natural landscapes such as rugged coastlines and overgrown woodlands. Using sustainable materials, her work incorporates organic patterns and a range of colours that reflect the textures and rhythms of the environment. Through intricate knotting and weaving, she crafts pieces that evoke elements of the natural world, emphasising the tactile qualities of the materials.
Eugenie Vronskaya creates figurative landscapes that merge memory and metaphysical reflection. Painted in the Scottish Highlands, her works capture the fleeting moments of dawn and dusk, using cool light and subtle colour palettes. Vronskaya’s landscapes evoke a symbolic interpretation of nature, transforming the environment into a space for spiritual connection.
Jean Huang creates work that directly engages with the landscape through her process of painting outdoors. She takes unstretched canvases into natural environments, allowing them to absorb the surrounding elements—such as tree bark, ocean waves, and rock textures. This process results in paintings that reflect the textures and colours of the environment, capturing the transient qualities of the seasons. Huang's physical interaction with the landscape is central to her artistic practice, with each piece reflecting her direct experience with the natural world.
Golnaz Jebelli’s work explores the subconscious mind through water, shadows, and reflections, blending the visible with the unseen. Influenced by Eastern wisdom and Carl Jung's theories on archetypes and the shadow, Jebelli’s paintings seek to uncover hidden aspects of the mind, with light serving as a key motif that creates movement, transformation, and depth. Her work blends personal experience with universal themes of memory, identity, and the human psyche.
Tom Norris fuses abstraction with organic, gestural marks in his works, creating vessels that are both functional and symbolic. Through his distinctive combination of hard-edged forms and soft, flowing gestures, Norris’s work evokes the dynamic energy of the natural world. His use of vibrant colour expresses the transition of seasons.
In Sublimis, the artists invite us to witness the divine in nature’s cycles and to reconnect with the earth’s timeless wisdom. Their works offer a vision of a world where humanity lives in harmony with the environment, grounded in respect and reverence for the natural world.
