Ariel Schlesinger:

Ways To Say Goodbye

About the
exhibition

The newly commissioned sculpture in the park by Ariel Schlesinger reached skywards, challenging our perception of the ordinary and highlighting the relationship between humans and nature. Cast in aluminium, with shattered mirrors nestled in its upper branches, Schlesinger’s tree invited visitors to explore the unique and remarkable qualities in the everyday.

Just as our original landscape architect, Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown, constructed a seemingly natural landscape, so Schlesinger’s sculpture took on a form that is at once both recognisable, and yet so much more.

This grounds commission was accompanied by a small solo exhibition of new work by Ariel Schlesinger inside the house.
