We ran an open call to select an artist to commission for our next exhibition, 34: The Critical Raw Materials Shaping Our Future. While we could only choose one artist, there were five amazing artists who are working at the intersection of art and science who we still wanted to highlight. In honour of Oxfordshire Art Weeks, we will be featuring each artist’s work over this week. First up, @studioinstar

Bon voyage @naturecalling25 billboards! It’s been a hoot and your future is going be in great hands with @greenhustlefest who have exciting plans…. Check out their festival on 30th May in Nottingham to see our micro billboards showcasing our co-produced prints with 70 teenagers in Lincolnshire as part of our commission with @lincolnshirewolds1 and new live art going up on our @studioinstar large billboard - which we are excited to see! More and more we are seeking to repurpose and give extra life to our commissions, and we couldn’t be more delighted with this result! . . . #repurposing #sustainableart #billboardart #studiospace #instar

Great to spot local street action by @transitiontownhastings as they take care of the promenade pilot plants today. Lots of conversation about plant resilience and planting for climate change along this coastal habitat. Lots of creative inspiration to take away as part of our public artwork. Amazing ‘test beds’ and seeds planted. Thanks Sherry and everyone involved in grass roots change 🙌 we hope to see you soon 🌱🌱🌱🌱 . . . . @studioinstar #transitiontownhastings #seakale #eastsussexwildlife #publicarthastings #instar

This weekends workshop at our @studioinstar was deeply rooted in nature, botanical detail, mark making, plant life composition and ink. Beautiful prints were pulled off the press, cups of tea flowed and even the odd nettle sting contributed to our creative energy. Check out our Field & Press print workshops in our studio, in Sherwood, Nottingham this spring (website link in@our bio). We’ll be launching our next season soon. . . . . #studioinstar #drypointprinting #printworkshop #sherwood #intaglioprintmaking

Hastings is a place full of Twittens, open skies, hag stones, Herring gulls, life, creativity and character. Creating ideas of place and connection with prints created by students at St Leonard’s Academy. We’re looking forward to returning later this month for more printmaking and placemaking ☀️ . . . . #studioinstar #stleonards #hastings #creativehastings #hastingswildlife @studioinstar @hastingscreatives @creativehastingsuk @hastings_museum @hastingscommons @creativehastings @projectartworks @st.leonardsacademy.official

East coast trip to Sutton on Sea to collect our INSTAR @naturecalling25 billboards from @seaviewcolonnade Open skies, sea urchins in the strand line and lunch in the dunes. So wonderful to take time to breathe in the sea air and get lost beach combing. . . . @lincolnshirewolds1 @natlandassoc @studioinstar
