Roman Road is pleased to present Landscapes from the UK, a solo exhibition by British artist Daisy Dodd-Noble. Taking the English countryside as its ostensible subject, the show features a collection of her latest paintings, teeming with thriving trees and shrubs in idyllic landscapes.

Appropriating specific trees she has encountered and whose history and origins she learned about through travels around the UK, Dodd-Noble reimagines them as expressive characters, coexisting, communicating and prospering in tranquil terrains. She seeks to disassemble component parts of the traditional landscape - by presenting trees as distinguished individuals - encouraging us to consider our own uniqueness and at once our shared consciousness and interdependence with the natural world. The essence of the UK’s landscape transpires through her analogous colour schemes; think forest and olive greens, goldenrod yellows and touches of muted oranges and browns – the shades of a typical British summer on the brink of autumnal change.

Dodd-Noble’s paintings are completely devoid of people, terrestrial animals and man-made structures. Yet the trace of mankind is found in the curation of the landscapes, accented with displays of native and non-native trees. It’s also possible to see ourselves in these trees that inhabit the artist’s softly composed abstract scenes through their interconnectedness with each other, being redolent of our human relationships. When examining Dodd-Noble’s latest paintings we can gain a deeper understanding of nature connection and its anchoring and vital force, perhaps emboldening us to make a transformational change.

On the occasion of the show, Roman Road will be hosting a talk between the artist and Landscape Architect Stephanos Georgiou from Dan Pearson Studio and special guests who will be discussing the British landscape now and next, reflecting on the long-term effects of climate change, on Thursday 12 January 2023 at the gallery.
