The Storey - Gallery
Open Daily - 11am - 6pm (Closed Sunday)

Doris Rohr was born in Hameln, Lower Saxony, Germany. She studied at West Surrey College of Art and Design, Coventry University and Essex University, and is currently submitting her PhD in Fine Art Drawing and Aesthetics with The Lancaster Institute of Contemporary Arts (LICA), Lancaster University. The relationship between aesthetics, morality and drawing underpins her research and teaching. Doris Rohr is Associate Lecturer in Fine Art at University of Ulster and tutor for drawing and painting at the Open College of the Arts.

This exhibition is the culmination of three and half years of practice-based research examining the natural environment through physical and imagined encounters. Following John Ruskin’s proposed method of closely observing detail, Rohr’s work speaks of ecological responsibility as the drawings are intended to celebrate and mourn a vanishing world of natural diversity. The drawings’ overall intentions are to encourage a reconsideration of our relationship to the environment, promoting caretaking and respect.
