WINTER DAYS 2025

Winter Days is Off the Kerb’s annual group exhibition showcasing a collection of artistic responses on the themes surrounding the season of winter.

Winter signifies a time of hibernation, introversion, introspection, foraging, going within.
Winter holds significance across cultures, often representing renewal and transformation. Winter symbolizes life and death in some cultures, while in others,
it’s a time of celebration, festivity, and spiritual renewal.

Musicians in history have written songs about winter symbolising tumultuous relationships, heartbreak, and lamentation.
In the history of art, Romanticism and Impressionism movements were well known for depicting this season. Romanticism used winter landscapes to evoke
melancholy and a sense of rupture, while Impressionism experimented with light and color exploring the effects of snow and atmosphere.
In Greek mythology, Demeter, the goddess of the Earth created winter. In Persian mythology the winter solstice symbolised birth and has been celebrated for
thousands of years. In Welsh mythology, a battle between mythological lovers represented the contest between summer and winter.
