Drawings, Paintings & Textiles by Peta Grounds and Meg Miller
This isn’t the garden Bosch imagined—but it grows from the same soil of wonder and mystery.
This exhibition brings together the work of Peta Grounds and Meg Miller — mother and daughter, each with a distinct creative voice shaped by material, place, and memory. Though we work in different mediums, there are shared threads: a love of colour, the handmade, and the quiet beauty of everyday life.
Peta’s stitched compositions unfold through colour, rhythm, and reinvention. In The Bird Garden and The Flower Garden, birds and blossoms take shape from new and reclaimed fabrics. Hexagonal patterns, like honeycomb, nod to bees and the quiet order within the natural world. Her quilts move between tradition and play—guided by touch, intuition, and a deep love of cloth.
Meg’s work follows quieter, wilder lines: drawings and oil paintings shaped by the patterns of growth and decay. Seedlings, bladderwrack, and shifting tidal forms emerge through natural pigments and handmade materials—works rooted in gardening, beekeeping, and the richly layered landscape around Loch Slapin. Her seaweed studies linger on moments of transformation, where decomposition gives rise to strange, near-human forms.
Together, their practices create a shared garden—a meeting place of land and sea, root and bloom, memory and imagination.
They invite us to pause, to peer more closely, and to find the mythic in the everyday.
