Blocked Field (Raglan)

SEAR, Helen

We’re working on releasing this image.

A monumental work of a scale that promises a grand vista. This work deliberately frustrates the conventions of picturesque landscapes, with our view blocked by a vast stack of hay bales.

Behind the stack sits the iconic view of Raglan Castle. Sear rejects romanticised notions of the landscape and challenges perceptions of the countryside.

We have a duty of care to all our audiences. This website draws on legacy collections data. We recognise that some of this information may be outdated or discriminatory and we're currently working to review our records. If you have any questions or comments on an artwork, please contact us.
