MARIELE Neudecker and Rosie Snell combine their works in the stunning exhibition 'Between Two Tides', which opens at the Motorcade/Flash Parade in St Phillips St, Bristol this weekend.

Painter Rosie and sculptor Mariele combine works made since a trip in May 2012, when they travelled together in the the sublime landscapes of North West Greenland. The works in Between Two Tides are based on the journey’s experiences and sights and look at human interference with the landscapes around Ilulissat, Uummannaq and Disko Island. The title of the exhibition alludes to the duality of two perceptions, the gap between two realities, the contemporary and traditional, in two subjective ways. A shared experience in the same landscape is fictionalized and re-presented.

Rosie Snell’s work documents how 21st century living impacts the far reaches of our planet. As well as the untamed wilderness of the Arctic, Snell also found herself drawn to man’s intervention. Snell’s work explores this often complex and contradictory relationship between humanity and the natural world and our increasingly urgent relationship with nature - the eulogizing and destruction, the aestheticizing and ultimately our longing for control.

For Between Two Tides Neudecker is showing a range of video, small sculptural and photographic works. She is interested in distorting and manipulating our perception and relationship to scale and representations. Her work is looking at how our eyes and subjective readings frame and crop 'views' - often of landscapes and vast spaces. Human traces appear in the landscapes, in an attempt to ask questions about 'nature' and imply continuous change and temporality as much as permanence and stability.
