Drawing inspiration from the timeless writings of Gilbert White, local artist Jacqueline Amies has embarked on a captivating exhibition, Biophilia, at Gilbert White’s House and Gardens which runs until 23rd June.

Over the last year, Jacqueline has made regular pilgrimages to Gilbert White’s House in Selborne, immersing herself in the natural splendour that once captivated the pioneering naturalist.

Jacqueline’s exploration of the house and its surrounding gardens has been a deeply immersive experience, echoing White’s own practice of “watching narrowly”.

With each visit she has keenly observed the ebb and flow of the seasons, noting the subtle changes in the landscape and the diverse array of insects and wildlife that call the gardens home.
