Walking the Land

LINE(S) OF ENQUIRY
 

Exhibition open: Monday 3 March to Thursday 27 March 2025
Monday to Friday 10am-5pm

Line(s) of Enquiry is an exhibition and symposium developed by Hardwick Gallery and Walking the Land, a multi-disciplinary artists’ collective that has been walking and making art on the first Friday of every month since 2004. For the past 18 months, WtL has held a number of walks on the Honeybourne Line in Cheltenham, a former railway track that is now a green corridor.

This durational engagement has enabled a sustained dialogue with the Honeybourne Line, towards understanding the track through its ecologies: as topography, as habitat, as network, as archive, a carrier of histories, a living museum, as a place of movement, pause and transient encounters. Members of the group that live further afield have located and engaged with other linear routes in a form of linked study.

To contextualise the exhibition within a wider field of practices, Walking the Land and Hardwick Gallery have coordinated a day-long symposium of discussions and workshops at the University of Gloucestershire. More information here.
