A Walk into the Wild - Solo Exhibition by Cara Fraser
The exhibition uses art as a a form of activism; to highlight the Global Extinction Crisis & the importance of saving endangered species...
Cara is a practicing Artist and Textile Designer based in Stirlingshire. Graduating from Edinburgh College of Art in 2020 with an MFA in Textiles, her work often involves illustrative depictions of the natural world. After taking an environmental design module - it became clear that something needed to be done in answer to the catastrophic impact that humanity was having on different species. For this reason, her graduate print design collection: "A Walk into the Wild" was created. It was formed to highlight the sheer extent to which animals are becoming endangered. After graduating at the beginning of the Covid pandemic, a lot of the work remained unseen in storage; its initial purpose unfulfilled. For this reason, Cara is hosting a solo exhibition at the Saltspace Gallery with the hope to draw attention to the rapid loss of species and to highlight the IUCN Red List of Endangered Species, which influenced her work. The exhibition includes a combination of fine art pieces: drawings and textiles produced in recent years and during her Masters of Fine Art.
