ECHO, is a brand-new exhibition by environmental artist Julie Dodd, running from 13 April until 14 August 2026, at Kirkby Gallery.
Visitors to ECHO will experience a thoughtful and visually powerful body of work that encourages audiences to consider their relationship with the environment.
Working primarily with recycled and reclaimed materials, Julie transforms discarded books, papers and everyday objects into intricate sculptural forms. Her practice is rooted in repetition, natural patterns and environmental responsibility, using art to spark reflection on waste, consumption and the fragile ecosystems we risk losing.
This will be Julie’s first solo exhibition in a decade and brings together some of her most recognisable sculptural works alongside brand-new pieces inspired by ecological themes and the changing climate.
A programme of creative workshops led by Julie will accompany the exhibition, inviting participants to explore hands-on responses to ecological issues. Details of these sessions will be shared on our social media platforms from April onwards.
