"I know a bank where the wild thyme blows, Where oxlips and the nodding violet grows..."

The dreamy botanical scenes of a Midsummer Night’s Dream can be found amongst the many resident plants of The Jam Factory. Scottish painter Julie-Ann Simpson joins Oxford’s own artists Elaine Kazimierczuk and Rosie Phipps to bring us fanciful, bright paintings of flowers and plant life in the unique personal styles of each artist. United by their summery colour palettes and playful experiments with perspective, the works are full of energy yet calm, otherworldly yet vivid, and harmonious yet striking. Each work embodies the sheer joy of a beautiful summer’s day drawing to a close. Be lulled by these flowers with a gin in hand, at The Jam Factory until 23rd September.
