There are three major themes to the show: plants, animals and the land, with ceramic work by Hiroko Aono-Billson, Sarah Horlock, Aliyah Hussain, Helena Lacy, Tamlin Lundberg, Stephen Parry, Katherine Pleydell-Bouverie, Matthew Richardson, Katie Spragg, Nessie Stonebridge, Emily Stapleton Jefferis, Alice Walton, Lucy Whitford, and painting, print, textiles and photography by Vija Celmins, Lizzie Kimbley, Yayoi Kusama, Yvonne Mullock, John Nash, Alida Kuzemczak-Sayer, Chloe Mandy, Maria Pavledis and Kiki Smith.

The garden at Bolwick Hall was designed by Humphry Repton and features cultivated and wilder areas of planting, a lake, the site of an old mill, marshland and woodland.

Caroline Fisher Projects was set up in 2018 to produce exhibitions in a range of venues with a focus on ceramics. Caroline’s interest is in clay as a material with the versatility to express ideas and feelings, as well as to perform a function. Previous exhibitions with Norfolk and Norwich Festival include ‘Plants, Porcelain, People’ in 2021 and ‘Littoral’ in 2024.
