Say It With Flowers, is a striking and dynamic annual exhibition at Oxmarket Contemporary in Chichester. Featuring the work of over 100 artists and makers — including painters, ceramicists, jewellers, glassmakers, and crafters — each offering a unique interpretation of the floral theme.

This year’s exhibition also includes striking conservation exhibits, such as photographic studies of British butterflies by Pauline Richards, and selections from the ecological diaries of Noar Hill and the Hangars, written by former warden Bill Lowe, who at 87 has generously shared his extraordinary legacy.

Among the highlights of the show is the unique and witty work of Frank Jennings, whose box frame creations — Deceptive Receptacles — are a brilliant blend of craftsmanship, humour, and conceptual depth. His presence adds an unexpected and thought-provoking dimension to the exhibition.

Created from her lifelong love of flowers and botanical art, Sheryl has become the founder and curator of this exhibition. She is an accomplished botanical artist whose work captures the intricate beauty and quiet elegance of the natural world and is a Fellow of the Society of Botanical Artists (SBA) and Artist in Residence for the British Iris Society at RHS Wisley. Say It With Flowers will continue to grow under Sheryl’s curatorial guidance. The exhibition celebrates the power of flowers — and art — to inspire, uplift, and connect us all.
