Slow Looking : The Art of Nature

€47.90

Slow Looking: The Art of Nature takes readers on a meditative journey from fields, mountains, forest and glaciers to lakes, ponds, waterfalls and rivers and on to sunrises, rainbows, comets, clouds, constellations and so much more. This guided observation of nature offers a whole new way of contemplating the world – all through the medium of art.

This beautiful book brings together artworks that explore our deep-rooted connection to nature – from Georgia O’Keeffe’s seashells to Van Gogh’s olive trees and ancient Egyptian carvings. With each pairing, Meehan encourages us to notice more, look closer and find calm in the beauty and power of the natural world, from volcanoes and tempestuous seas to shimmering forests and shooting stars.

Slow Looking is a gentle reminder of the joy that can be found in paying attention, and how much nature continues to inspire, soothe and ground us
