The Itchen: From Source to Sea

This exhibition showcases a collaborative project between artists Lizzie McKellar and Lorraine Morris that charts the River Itchen from source to sea, and is part of our Recording the Region season.

Exploring the river’s route through the Hampshire countryside during all seasons of the year, both artists have created work that explores the diversity of the landscape through photographs, drawings and paintings.

First exhibited in 2013 at Pinglestone Barn, in Alresford, not far from the river’s source the project has grown and evolved as it has toured to venues along the river’s path, completing the journey in the city where it flows out into Southampton Water.
