The Fragmented Landscape invites the viewers to explore the diverse plant life and environments that have shaped Katie Spragg’s practice over the past eight years. The exhibition brings together contrasting landscapes and ecosystems, prompting reflection on how they coexist, inform each other, and occasionally collide.
At its core, the exhibition examines the fragmented nature of memory, observation, and representation. Drawing from her work with people living with dementia, Spragg embraces the fluidity and ambiguity of nature, encouraging visitors to consider how fragmentation offers a deeper understanding of both the natural world and ourselves.
Spragg has invited five artists—Johanna Tagada Hoffbeck, Rosanna Martin, Inês Neto dos Santos, Sop, and Bethan Lloyd Worthington—to expand this dialogue. Their works explore themes of caregiving, longing, and the textures of lived experience, forming a fragmented yet interconnected landscape.
The exhibition features past sculptures, new drawings, and clay ‘sketches’—impressions of nature rooted in Spragg’s local East Sussex surroundings and weekly train journeys between Brighton and London. The Fragmented Landscape encourages reflection on how we move through, observe, and remember landscapes, with an invitation to embrace their shifting, layered nature.
