The Shape of Care at The Holburne

Created in collaboration with the Gardener’s Lodge Art Group, IMAGE Group, Happy Mondays, artists, facilitators, volunteers and staff from Pathways to Wellbeing. inviting us to pause and consider where care lives in our daily routines and how it shapes our sense of belonging. Over the past year, the Pathways to Wellbeing community has explored what care looks like — it’s presence and absence, the moments in which it is given or received, and the ways it can be felt, witnessed and made visible through making. Presented through personal and powerful responses, the exhibition celebrates the small, sustaining gestures that can sometimes be overlooked or undervalued: patient attention, thoughtful exchanges, creative connections.
