Free entry

Join artists from Edible East as they journey into the microscopic world of Norfolk's landscape.

Inspired by 2025 being the 400th anniversary of the use of the term 'microscope', this exhibition is part of an on-going residency at Gressenhall Farm and Workhouse, supported by the John Innes Centre and The Centre for Microbial Interactions, Norwich.

From microscopic fungi that support life in the soil, to single-celled algae that overwhelm freshwater ecosystems, Edible East have responded to a range of historic and contemporary material, offering a visual and playful exploration of our relationship with the natural world.

Alongside large-scale, mixed media artworks, using print, installation and shadow-theatre techniques, visitors will be able to see historical material on loan from the John Innes Foundation Historical Collections.

This listing is supplied by one of our museum partners and is not moderated by Art Fund.
