The exhibition
Contemporary artworks by a sculptor, a woodcarver and a film maker brought to life some of the intriguing stories of Felbrigg Hall in a new exhibition.
As part of the National Trust’s Trust New Art Programme, and in partnership with the Norfolk Contemporary Art Society (NCAS), 250 artists applied for the opportunity to undertake a residency that would give them special behind the scenes access to the house and its archives to create new perspectives on its history through contemporary art.
In the past, the families who lived at Felbrigg had a tradition of commissioning new work from artists and craftspeople. The artworks created for 'The Makers' exhibition, continued this tradition.
