Lisa Honeychurch, Elise Lidgett, Judith Warnest and Sarah Wallace-Smith have combined their work for Abutt, which examines the human impact on the landscape.
Part of the exhibition is interactive with clean pieces of rubbish collected in a room in Dudley House for patrons to create their own clean rubbish sculpture.
People are even encouraged to bring their own small pieces of clean rubbish to add to the display.
“If you have an idea of what you want create, do it here,” Ms Honeychurch said.
“All of us have commitment to art in terms of it being something everybody can do rather than just a thing you look at on the wall.
“It’s not just about the pretty pictures, it’s about people engaging in their own creativity.”
Abutt also features digital print work, photographs, paintings and sculptures by the four artists.
“It’s really about how we express or witness what’s happening in the global climate,” Ms Honeychurch said. “Humans are a geological force and I think that’s what the exhibition shows. Everything we do has an impact on nature.”
Abutt is open daily at Dudley House from 11am to 5pm from June 9 to June 17. The official opening will be on June 9 at 4pm.
