Natalie Toms: Bleujenn

This blossom season, discover Natalie Toms in her debut exhibition at Cotehele.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

'Bleujenn,' Cornish for 'blossom,' explores the beauty and interconnectedness of spring flowers and the wildlife they sustain. Focusing on apple, cherry, blackthorn, and pear, Toms celebrates the fragile yet vital relationship between these blooms and the creatures that rely on them for food and pollination.

Proud of her Cornish heritage, the artist weaves the Cornish language through the name of each painting, and tradition and folklore throughout.

This exhibition in the Victorian Drawing Room encourages reflection on the deep-rooted connection between Cornwall’s natural world and its cultural heritage, fostering a greater appreciation for both.
